South Asian strategic concepts are generally analysed in the
backdrop of the Cold War model. Conclusions inferred from
this comparative analysis could help bring out valuable
lessons, but also lead to incorrect assumptions, as there are
several similarities and dissimilarities between the two
models. The „Stability-instability paradox‟ was one of the
several concepts evolved during the Cold War period to
explain why „stability‟ at the strategic level between the two
Super Powers led to „instability‟ at the lower levels of the
conflict. This paradox continues to remain a subject of intense
debate in South Asia as well, essentially to explain various
regional crises in the post-nuclearization period. This article
challenges some of the commonly held perceptions and aims
to provide an alternative perspective on South Asian „stabilityinstability paradox‟, essentially to develop better
understanding of the impact of nuclearization on the South
Asian strategic stability.
