The dead are walking among the living and hungry for flesh... Jason Burke is a troubled med student with little hope for the apocalyptic world. While away on his annual hunting trip with his father, the last thing he expected to encounter was a zombie. Though he always dreamed of helping people, having to rely on strangers for survival is a different story. Living in the zombie apocalypse has only seemed to make him bitter until he crosses paths with Dylan Cane. Dylan is a persistent optimist with a background in the National Guard. He has an undying crush on Jason and is the valiant leader of a diverse group of survivors, determined to lead them all to safety. This is no easy task with winter setting in, zombie attacks, and a mysterious illness going around. Along the way, they soon discover that not everyone is who they appear to be and there are deadly consequences when you trust the wrong people. Every day is a struggle to survive and even Dylan begins to wonder if they can possibly defeat the zombies inheriting the earth. Can they make it out alive? Will the dwindling human population find a way to defeat the zombies or will all hope be lost?

India's anticipated rise to prominence in what has been termed the 'Asian 21st century' will have a significant impact upon geopolitics in the coming decades. As India's stature continues to increase across Asia and the world, appreciating which interests and principles structure the country's international interaction has never been more important. Central to these dynamics is how India's identity - and the longstanding values, principles and practices underpinning it - acts as the paramount factor that deeply structures the conduct of its international affairs. Acknowledging this centrality, this edited volume uses this factor as its foremost theme of analysis through which to understand and analyse India's most important regional, great power and diplomatic interactions. Not only providing a mechanism better to appreciate the historical foundations of these relationships, the focus on identity is also necessary to appreciate how the Hindu nationalism of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) under the leadership of Narendra Modi is now permeating Indian diplomacy. For the BJP, the pursuit - and attainment - of global influence and heightened status is the driving imperative of the BJP with regard to India's contemporary international affairs.Chapter 6 of this book is available for free in PDF format as Open Access from the individual product page at www.taylorfrancis.com.

Chris Ogden argues that, as the world capitulates to China's preferred authoritarian order, other world powers are moving to this as a dominant global phenomenon, which will transform global institutions, human rights and political systems.
