Oslo Conference 2014John Garver, professor in the Nunn School, was invited to give a talk on India-China relations at a half-day seminar on Indian foreign policy and strategic thinking in Oslo, Norway. The seminar was hosted by the Norwegian Institute for Defense Studies (IFS), which is concluding a study on the emerging structure of power in Asia. Garver was invited to speak on a published product of the study regarding the origins of the 1962 India-China war. He suggested similarities between the historiography of the Korean and the 1962 wars in that what had long been viewed as the casus belli for the conflict, crossing of the 38th parallel by U.S. forces and India’s adoption of the Forward Strategy in 1961, receded from prominence and ceded emphasis to a regional balance of power.
Garver's 2001 study Protracted Contest: Sino-indian Rivalry in the Twentieth Century has become a benchmark work in the study of India-China relations.
