Author: Francisco Javier Elorza.
Javier Elorza, Spain’s ambassador in New Delhi (2011-2012) and one of the most brilliant Spanish diplomats of the last decades, invites to a trip that goes far beyond protocol. With the sharp gaze of those who have negotiated in the most influential offices in Brussels, Paris or Moscow, the author lands in New Delhi to unravel the mysteries of a country that is both a technological avant-garde power and a society anchored in millennia-old traditions.
With a lucid, unfiltered look, Elorza dissects India’s rise as a global power, its complex relationship with Europe, and its unique “multialignment” model on an increasingly polarized international board. Through these pages they walk from the echoes of tiger hunts by former ambassadors and the opulence of maharajas’ palaces, to the drama of farmers and the monumental environmental challenges of the world’s largest democracy.
Written with the rigor of an analyst, but with the closeness of those who share their personal experiences, this book offers the keys to understanding a nation where the hunger for change of millions of people struggle to define its definitive place in the new world order.
