Terrorism and low intensity conflicts are not new in South Asia but the September 11, 2001 terror attacks on the United States suddenly gave the events a new dimension. From regional considerations, terrorism acquired global connotation and in this changed perspective, South Asian terrorism and low intensity conflicts needed to be explored afresh. The geographical region covered by the book includes predominantly the member countries of SAARC, Afghanistan and Myanmar, as also specific case studies including a few instances of terrorist activities from beyond the region. The papers analyse the societal, political and economic factors responsible for the rise and salience of terrorism; the challenges posed by terrorism and low intensity conflict on peace, stability and security of the nation-states and people; the international, regional and national regime against terrorism and perpetrators of mass violence; the motives, ideologies, strategies and activities of various non-state armed groups in South Asia; and thereby contribute toward meaningful policy options in tackling terrorism and activities of armed groups.

Global Togetherness is an idea the time of which has come. It is an idea which has been evolving for many millennia. The idea permeated the Vedic and the Sramana vision of life in India. ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ was the credo of the liberal, large-hearted, enlightened, emancipated, and civilizational mindset of India in its radiant magnanimity. The seers of India envisioned in their concept of global togetherness the oneness of the human family, the foundation of which was the sharing and caring philosophy of reciprocity, interdependence and affirmative tolerance based on an understanding and acceptance of diversities.
