      title = {China's Achilles' heel : the Belt and Road Initiative and  its Indian discontents /},
      abstract = {This book analyses Chinese discourse on Indian attitudes  towards the Belt & Road Initiative (BRI), and argues that  the Indian discourse is becoming one of the biggest hurdles  to China creating its own narrative about Chinas rise in  Asia and beyond. In doing so, it spans across the themes of  the power struggle between China and US, China and India,  the Chinese perception of India, China-South Asia  relations, the China-US- India triangle of power and the  success and failures of BRI. The first part of the book  focuses on the Chinese thinking behind the launch of the  BRI and addresses questions related to the purpose of this  initiative and ways in which it will facilitate Chinas rise  as a superpower. Subsequently the book addresses how  effective or ineffective Indias challenge is and how it is  negatively affecting Chinas BRI. Srikanth Thaliyakkattil is  an independent scholar. He was previously a visiting  research fellow at the Institute of South Asian Studies,  National University of Singapore. He holds a PhD and  Masters degree in International Relations from Peking  University, China.},
