Ideals of ancient Hindu politics and the Arthaśāstra of Kauṭilya

Author: Naik, B. B.

Keywords: Politics, Government, Political science, History, Kauṭilya, Arthaśāstra

Publisher: Dharwar

Description: Authored by Bhimrao B. Naik, this book lists the ideals of ancient Hindu politics and the Arthasastra of Kautilya. It is an attempt to elucidate the basic political ideas of the Ancient Hindus and offers an honest and painstaking solution to a difficult problem. The book is a compilation of relevant portions of several ancient Hindu texts like the Mahabharata, the Gautama Dharmasutra, the Manusmriti, and other books on the ancient polity. The whole idea of the essay is to show that the Ancient Indian political philosophy is not based, as some scholars are tempted to believe, on the principles of Democracy, but on the wider principle of Dharma.
