This paper describes how the US security discourse "triangulates" India and China, and how India and China seek to ally with the US more than each other. Accordingly, the US assumes to remain superior to both and can play one against the other. The authors describe how neither assumptions hold up and how the rivalries between the states have mainly also been built up by the different ruling elites.
