In contemporary world history, the end of the Cold War is a milestone. It had reverberations across the world and at multiple levels. This globalized age was led by a neoliberal world order and capitalist forces, which required economies to grow, and for which they developed alliances with various states.

This chapter explores and analyses these transitions and how they impacted the Indian American community’s ability to exercise soft power.
