Session on Making Waves: India’s Next-Generation Aircraft Carrier
India’s next-generation carrier, if properly designed, will bolster India’s capability to control the Indian Ocean in the face of China’s growing naval power

Carnegie’s Ashley Tellis spoke about his new monograph, Making Waves: India's Next-Generation Aircraft Carrier, at the Ananta Aspen Center in New Delhi. In it, Tellis proposes that India partner with the United States to jointly develop the new carrier. In this way, India would benefit from the United States’ deep knowledge of carrier construction and advanced technology, while also laying the groundwork for future operational partnerships in the Indian Ocean. India's next-generation carrier, if properly designed, will bolster India’s capability to control the Indian Ocean in the face of China’s growing naval power, he concluded.

- Is China’s High-Quality Investment Output Economically Viable?Commentary
China’s rapid technological progress and its first-rate infrastructure are often cited as refuting the claim that China has been systematically overinvesting in non-productive projects for many years. In fact, as the logic of overinvestment and the many historical precedents show, the former is all-too-often consistent with the latter.
