В настоящее время Индия превратилась во влиятельную региональную державу, чему во многом способствовала её весьма эффективная внешняя политика. В данной статье рассмотрены факторы, определяющие внешнюю политику Индии в прошлом и настоящем. Это, во-первых, признание уникальной роли национальных традиций и ценностей индийской цивилизации, которые экстраполируются на международную политику. И, во-вторых, особое восприятие колониального опыта, переносимое на отношения с внешним миром и соседями по региону. Эти основания сформировали две антиномичные по своему смыслу стратегии индийской внешней политики: укрепление "национальной автономии" и расширение "добрососедства".

Currently, India has become an influential regional power, which has been greatly facilitated by its highly effective foreign policy. This article examines the factors (origins) that determined India’s foreign policy in the past and present. Firstly, it is a recognition of the unique role of national traditions and values of Indian civilization, which are extrapolated to international politics. And, secondly, a special perception of the colonial experience, transferred to the relationships with the outside world and neighboring regions. These foundations have formed two antinomic strategies of Indian foreign policy: strengthening "national autonomy" and expanding "good neighborliness".
