Sinopsis

The ancient Indian text ofáKautilyaâÇÖs ArthaÅóÄüstraácomes forth as a valuable non-Western resource for understanding contemporary International Relations (IR). However,áKautilyaâÇÖs ArthaÅóÄüstraálargely suffers from the problem of âÇÖpresentismâÇÖ, whereby present-day assumptions of the dominant theoretical models of Classical Realism and Neorealism are read back into it, thereby disrupting open reflections onáKautilyaâÇÖs ArthaÅóÄüstraáwhich could retrieve its âÇÖalternative assumptionsâÇÖ and âÇÖunconventional traitsâÇÖ. This book attempts to enableáKautilyaâÇÖs ArthaÅóÄüstraáto break free from the problem of presentism - it does so by juxtaposing the elements of continuity and change that showed up at different junctures of the life-history of both âÇÖKautilyaâÇÖs ArthaÅóÄüstraâÇÖ and âÇÖEurocentric IRâÇÖ. The overall exploratory venture leads to a Kautilyan non-Western eclectic theory of IR - a theory which moderately assimilates miscellaneous research traditions of Eurocentric IR, and, in addition, delivers a few innovative features that could potentially uplift not only Indian IR, but also Global IR.
