About this ebook
Who protects a kingdom when the methods of protection threaten its people? This original English introduction examines the statecraft associated with Chanakya and the layered Arthashastra through councils, records, agriculture, famine relief, law, surveillance, diplomacy, and conquest. It separates the traditional strategist from disputed questions of authorship and asks what ancient political intelligence can teach without excusing coercion, caste and gender hierarchy, or war. Eighteen chapters include a glossary, chapter-to-source map, and annotated bibliography. This is not a translation or a business-strategy manual.
