<p style="margin-right: 5.05pt; text-align: justify;"> <span>Revisiting the Political Thought of Ancient India: Pre-Kautilyan Arthashastra Tradition</span></strong><em><span> </span></em><span>rediscovers the political ideas of the original and celebrated schools of thought in ancient India&mdash;early Arthashastra and Pre-Kautilyan traditions.</span> <p style="margin-right: 5.05pt; text-align: justify;"><span>This book throws light on hitherto not very well-known aspects of political ideas in ancient India, which flourished during the 5th and 4th centuries before Christ. Kautilya&rsquo;s Arthashastra is a major text on ancient Indian political thought, wherein he cited views of a number of Arthashastra teachers who had written on political science. Unfortunately, their writings are not available today; only their views are found scattered in different texts. This book brings together these views to prepare a coherent account of their political ideas and reconstructs the pre-Kautilyan Arthashastra tradition with the help of available sources. </span> <br />
