Download or read book World Political Systems after Polarity written by Nerses Kopalyan and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-06-14 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What will the current global political order look like when American unipolarity ends? Historically, the power configurations of world political systems have been defined by four structures: multipolarity, tripolarity, bipolarity, and unipolarity. These concepts inform both the formulation and the analysis of short-term policies and long-term, grand strategies of powerful actors in the world political order and may be of profound importance to the future peace and stability of the global system. The concept of nonpolarity, however, has never been addressed as a possible or a potential structural formulation in the nomenclature of global political systems. This book provides a coherent conceptualization of nonpolarity and how diplomacy will operate in a more collective age, and fits into the ongoing discussion about the nature of the political world order as we approach the end of the "American century."

Download or read book The Imperial Maukharis written by Thakur Prasad Verma and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2018-08-27 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History of the Imperial Maukhari of Kanauj and Harshavardhana is an innovative history of the Maukharis, which, for the first time, brings to light a glory that was overshadowed by Harsha of Thanesar, whose ancestors were their feudatories. Harsha usurped the Maukhari Empire on the pretext of avenging the murder of his brother-in-law Grahavarma Maukhari and his own older brother Rajyavardhana. But obviously, he did nothing to defeat them, especially the murderer of his brother Sasanka, who ruled for more than nineteen years after the incident. It is also interesting to note that Yuan Chwang, the most important source of the history of Harsha’s time visited his capital Thanesar, but did not notice anything related to Harsha there. This reflects the authenticity of the Chinese pilgrim. A treatise of facts dovetailed with inscriptive narratives from historic accounts, this book tries to uncover the times and glory of an empire that history books mostly left out of its narrative.

Book excerpt: Basic Approach Developed as a comprehensive introductory work for scholars and students of ancient and early medieval Indian history, this books provides the most exhaustive overview of the subject. Dividing the vast historical expanse from the stone age to the 12th century into broad chronological units, it constructs profiles of various geographical regions of the subcontinent, weaving together and analysing an unparalleled range of literary and archaeological evidence. Dealing with prehistory and protohistory of the subcontinent in considerable detail, the narrative of the historical period breaks away from conventional text-based history writing. Providing a window into the world primary sources, it incorporates a large volume of archaeological data, along with literary, epigraphic, and numismatic evidence. Revealing the ways in which our past is constructed, it explains fundamental concepts, and illuminates contemporary debates, discoveries, and research. Situating prevailing historical debates in their contexts, Ancient and Early Medieval India presents balanced assessments, encouraging readers to independently evaluate theories, evidence, and arguments. Beautifully illustrated with over four hundred photographs, maps, and figures, Ancient and Early Medieval India helps visualize and understand the extraordinarily rich and varied remains of the ancient past of Indian subcontinent. It offers a scholarly and nuanced yet lucid account of India s early past, and will surely transform the discovery of this past into an exciting experience.
