Summary/Abstract: The relations between People’s Republic of China and India has been at best ambiguous since the beginning, as the two non-western states passed through domestic turbulences, independence struggle, revolution and experienced border conflicts. The strategic relation between China and Pakistan makes India feel surrounded, while at the same time the tendency of India to establish close relations with USA is seen by Beijing as an attempt to counter-balance the so-called peaceful rising of Chinese power.
