Sino-Indian Border Conflict was spread in the border war in 1962. This war first of all was connected with the linear boundary concept. Since 19th century, British-ruled India and Qing dynasty, and the himalayan states tried to set up or resist the line. Especially British-ruled India had leaded the new trend. The main problem was the question of title to a number of 'no-man's lands' and buffer zone. After Sino-Indian establishment and Independence, there was the western sector(Aksai Chin) and the middle sector and the eastern sector(the McMahon Line) in Sino-Indian Border. The border war of 1962 was the dispute of Aksai Chin region and the McMahon Line region. This war also was connected the game of geopolitics. The grand design of geopolitics in India was derived from British-ruled India' heritage. A case of China, it was derived from the experiences of Qing dynasty. Especially the Tibet perception of Sino-Indian leaders was differant. The complete loss of Tibet was a loss of a buffer zone and friend. Without Tibet, India and Chian was hard to maitain some friendship for many Indians. The "forward" policy of India in 1960s was derived from this background. The linear boundary concept has already been a common sence. On the other hand, the interchange between nation and nation is largely increasing in the era of globalization. Today, the relationship of India and China is improving. But the experience of the conflict and differant Tibet perceptions still exist. And in china the nationalistic Strategy as 'Western Great Development' is going on. This situation means the international interests is important as the national interests.
