Book Synopsis King, Governance, and Law in Ancient India by : Kauṭalya
Download or read book King, Governance, and Law in Ancient India written by Kauṭalya and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-31 with total page 785 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: King, Governance, and Law in Ancient India presents an English translation of Kautilya's Arthashastra (AS.) along with detailed endnotes. When it was discovered in 1923, the Arthashastra was described as perhaps the most precious work in the whole range of Sanskrit literature, an assessment that still rings true. This new translation of this significant text, the first in close to half a century takes into account a number of important advances in our knowledge of the texts, inscriptions, and archeological and art historical remains from the period in Indian history to which the AS. belongs (2nd-3rd century CE, although parts of it may be much older). The text is what we would today call a scientific treatise. It codifies a body of knowledge handed down in expert traditions. It is specifically interested in two things: first, how a king can expand his territory, keep enemies at bay, enhance his external power, and amass riches; second, how a king can best organize his state bureaucracy to consolidate his internal power, to suppress internal enemies, to expand the economy, to enhance his treasury through taxes, duties, and entrepreneurial activities, to keep law and order, and to settle disputes among his subjects. The book is accordingly divided into two sections: the first encompassing Books 1-5 deals with internal matters, and the second spanning Books 6-14 deals with external relations and warfare. The AS. stands alone: there is nothing like it before it and there is nothing after it-if there were other textual productions within that genre they are now irretrievably lost. Even though we know of many authors who preceded Kautilya, none of their works have survived the success of the AS. Being "textually" unique makes it difficult to understand and interpret difficult passages and terms; we cannot look to parallels for help. The AS. is also unique in that, first, it covers such a vast variety of topics and, second, it presents in textual form expert traditions in numerous areas of human and social endeavors that were handed down orally. Expert knowledge in diverse fields communicated orally from teacher to pupil, from father to son, is here for the first time codified in text. These fields include: building practices of houses, forts, and cities; gems and gemology; metals and metallurgy; mining, forestry and forest management; agriculture; manufacture of liquor; animal husbandry, shipping, and the management of horses and elephants- and so on. Finally, it is also unique in presenting a viewpoint distinctly different from the Brahmanical "party line" we see in most ancient Indian documents.

Download or read book The Dragon and the Elephant written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2010-03-25 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The return of the once-dormant economies of China and India to dynamism and growth is one of the most remarkable stories in recent history. The two countries are home to nearly 40 percent of the world's population, but until recently neither had played an influential role in the contemporary global economy. In the past two decades, China and India have liberalized internal economic policy, treatment of foreign investment, and trade, and have experienced economic growth at sustained high rates. From the point of view of the United States, however, the most important development in the Chinese and Indian economies in the long term may be the strides they are making in developing their own domestic innovation capacities. After a long period of underinvestment, both countries have committed to growing their science and education systems to bolster research and further economic expansion. Some observers of the recent growth have said that both countries are surging in their efforts to spur innovation; others have emphasized the potential of one country over the other; and still others have suggested that both China and India have a long way to go before achieving innovation-driven growth. With such a range of views, The National Academies set out to describe developments in both countries, in relation to each other and the rest of the world, by organizing a conference in Washington, D.C. The conference, summarized in this volume, discussed recent changes at both the macroeconomic level and also in selected industries, and explored the causes and implications of those changes.
Book Synopsis Taxation and Revenue Collection in Ancient India by : Sanjeev Kumar
Download or read book Taxation and Revenue Collection in Ancient India written by Sanjeev Kumar and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-05-11 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to study taxation and revenue collection through a detailed analysis of public finance and financial administration in four major Indian texts, namely Mahabharata, Manusmriti, Shukranitisar and Arthashastra, as philosophers trained in the Indian classic tradition and scholars working on ancient Indian wisdom mostly prefer a more abstract approach. India has a long tradition of at least two millennia of active philosophizing in the fields of logic, ethics, epistemology and metaphysics, though many in the West feel hesitant in according it the title “philosophy” in their sense of the word. Furthermore, few in India have taken it beyond philosophy towards active knowledge. This book re-visits and re-interprets the contexts of these texts with logic and objectivity to bring the pearls of knowledge found within into the present day, showing that Sanskrit is still the lingua franca of intellectual dialogue in India.
Book Synopsis Guilds in Ancient India by : Kiran Kumar Thaplyal
Download or read book Guilds in Ancient India written by Kiran Kumar Thaplyal and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 1996 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Attempt Is Made Here To String Together Pieces Of Evidence Collected From Various Sources With A View To Throwing Light On Different Aspects Of Ancient Indian Guilds And Presenting Their Systematic Account. The Region Covered Is Northern India And Western Deccan. The Clubbing Together Of These Two Areas Was Prompted By The Consideration Of Their Close Cultural Affinity And Geographical Proximity. The Choice Of The Period 600 Bc-600 Ad Was Determined On The Grounds That By 600 Bc, The Guilds Had Clearly Emerged And By 600 Ad They Were On The Decline. Evidence From Other Areas And Periods Is At Times Referred To For The Sake Of Comparison And Also For Drawing Inferences.Of The Eight Chapters, The First Five Deal Variously With Nature, Scope, Chronology And Limitations Of The Sources, Meaning Of The Terms Nigama And Sreni; Origin And Development Of Guilds; Their Structure; Characteristic Features And Functions. Then Follow Chapters Dealing With Relationship Between Guilds And Caste And Between Guild And State. In The Last Chapter, There Is A Brief Discussion On The Factors Responsible For The Decline Of The Guilds.Certain Important Aspects Related To Guild Organization, Not Adequately Dealt With Under Chapters, Are Elaborated In Eight Appendices Dealing Variously With Srenibala; Sanskrit Terms Connoting Economic Organizations; Significance Of Number Eighteen Tagged To Guilds; Guild Coins; Guild Seals; Problem Of Two Rates Of Interest Offered By Two Guilds Of The Same Age And Place; Various Aspects Of The Celebrated Silk-Weavers Guild Of Mandasor; And Nature Of Single-Craft Villages Of The Jataka Tales.Reference To The View Of Scholars On Issues Under Discussion Has Been Freely Resorted To. At Times Disagreement With Their View Has Been Expressed And New Interpretations Have Been Offered.
