The Encyclopedia of South-East and South Asian Security focused on security dynamics across the South-East and South Asian regions. The geopolitical, economic, and cultural diversity of these regions makes them important since it creates a variety of intricate security concerns. A thorough examination of both conventional and unconventional security challenges, such as terrorism, insurgencies, interstate wars, and maritime disputes, is offered by the encyclopaedia. It addresses issues related to political stability, economic growth, environmental challenges, military and defence matters, and the role of regional organisations like ASEAN and SAARC in promoting security cooperation. The influence of major countries and how their objectives converge with local security concerns are also explored. This comprehensive resource provides a broad yet detailed examination of factors influencing peace and stability in South-East and South Asia, making it invaluable for policymakers, researchers, and students seeking to understand the complexities of security in a region characterised by both strategic importance and vulnerabilities.
