| This dissertation delves into the role of external powers, specifically the United States and China, in counter-terrorism efforts within South Asia, a region marked by geopolitical complexities and historical conflicts. It outlines the historical and socio-political factors driving terrorism, including the colonial legacy, the Afghan conflict, and the Kashmir issue, as well as socio-economic, religious, and ideological influences. The article compares the distinct counter-terrorism strategies employed by the U.S. and China—military interventions, intelligence sharing, and diplomatic partnerships by the U.S., and economic investment, security cooperation, and multilateral diplomacy by China. Both powers' efforts are evaluated for their effectiveness, highlighting short-term successes and long-term challenges, such as instability in Afghanistan and security threats to China's infrastructure investments in Pakistan. Through case studies, the analysis emphasizes the necessity of a multifaceted approach combining military, economic, and diplomatic strategies for sustainable peace and regional stability. The article concludes that while the involvement of external powers has shaped the security landscape in South Asia, long-term stability will require deeper regional cooperation and adaptive counter-terrorism strategies. | ||
