An extraordinary manual on statecraft by one of classical India's
greatest minds, Kautilya also known as Chanakya and Vishnugupta (BC
350283) wrote the Arthashastra. He was the man who destroyed the
Nanda dynasty and installed Chandragupta Maurya as the King of
Magadha. A master strategist, he was wellversed in the Vedas and
adept at devising political stratagems. The original book is the
most comprehensive treatise of statecraft of all times. The text
covers numerous topics, duties and responsibilities of the King; a
complete code of law; foreign policy; secret and occult practices
and so on. Artha, literally meaning wealth is one of four supreme
aims prescribed by Hindu tradition. However, it has a much wider
significance and the material wellbeing of individuals is just a
part of it. In accordance with this he stressed that the state or
government of a country has a vital role to play in maintaining the
material status of both the nation and its people. Therefore, a
significant part of the Arthashastra has to do with the science of
economics. When it deals with the science of politics, the
Arthashastra describes in detail the art of government in its
widest sensethe maintenance of law and order as also of an
efficient administrative machinery. All of this has been written
about in this small book for the benefit of all readers.
