Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback, 468 pages, NOT ex-library. Gentle handling wear, bent tip of the upper corner of rear cover and last pages. Else book is clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Straight unbroken spine. -- This work offers a detailed analysis of the Arthashastra, an ancient Indian treatise on statecraft, economic policy, and military strategy. Attributed to the scholar Kautilya, who is often identified with Chanakya - advisor to the first Mauryan emperor Chandragupta - the text is believed to date to the period between the 4th and 2nd centuries BCE. The authors position this work not merely as a historical artifact but as a foundational text of political realism with enduring relevance for modern politics. They provide an "intellectual portrait," systematically exploring its core concepts of power, sovereignty, and foreign policy. A central argument is that the Arthashastra's pragmatic principles form a "classical root" that continues to subtly inform India's strategic culture. It serves as a bridge between Indology and political science, presenting Kautilya's thought as a non-Western tradition of realpolitik comparable to that of Machiavelli or Thucydides.…
