碩士 / 國立中興大學 / 國際政治研究所 / 103 / India, as an important state actor in the South Asia after independence in 1947, it engrossed itself to be as better as an impressive superpower in the international environment. This is reflected not only on the governance in subcontinent, but also extended to the marine sector such as Indian Ocean Region (IOR). As for the latter, establishing the thinking of strategy and naval forces would help India consolidate hegemony. However entangled with the border dispute in north, India has not put the issues of developing ocean as the core of defense, which makes the maritime strategy of India just stills in vision.
The study aims to understand the logic and context of Indian maritime strategy through the strategic tradition, cultural background, and tries to discuss the views that hold by the political elite or thinker from the past to the present who discussed about India`s maritime strategic issues. To review the India1s maritime thoughts and doctrine in three difference periods, including: Ancient India, British India and Post Cold War as an analytical background. At the same time, it takes an example, how India responses to China`s Indian Ocean Policies, to observe the Indian Ocean strategic ideas and experiences, if providing the appropriate policy responses or inspiration.
The study concludes that the importance of sea power of India is based on different era structures and on the premise of ensuring land security to enhance the use of the oceans, navy and related policies. Although continental doctrine still has powerful position than the ocean in India strategic thought, the latter has increased its value recently. Influenced by traditional ideology on strategy, Indian maritime strategy required to develop the military forces and to expand the role of navy internally; on the external front, India has tendency to use the balance of power by defensive strategy and to establish a strategic fulcrum in Rim-IOR to balance, counter or impede the threat from beyond, rather than maverick way.
