Hegemonic stability in the Indo-Pacific: US-India relations and induced balancing
Original language description
The United States has improved relations with no other country during the Trump administration as much as it advanced its relationship with India. US-India relations have arguably marked their historical high points since Trump entered office and India seems to be overcoming its suspicion of closer cooperation with the US. Given these developments, this article aims to theorize the relationship through the hegemonic stability theory and explain US strategy toward India. We first demonstrate why India is accepting the hegemonic standing of the US in the Indo-Pacific and then - since balance of power politics are still a staple of policymakers' approach to stability in the Indo-Pacific - we introduce the notion of induced balancing to show what approach the United States has adopted to empower India to expand its balancing capacity vis-a-vis China. The last section of the article empirically maps the various incentives that Washington offers to New Delhi in order to situate it in the desired position of a proxy China-balancer.
