The author of this volume Dr. Ratan Lal Basu is a Ph. D. in Economics (on Arthaśāstra, the treatise on political economy and statecraft composed by a Brāhmaṇa scholar Kauṭilya around 300 B. C.).

Human civilization has exhibited marvelous achievements in the new millennium but at the same time, as though in perfect conformity with Newton's Third Law, the achievements have been besmirched by uncertainties and signs of un-sustainability. Apart from the moral and ethical degeneration keeping pace with material achievements, materialistic achievements themselves have been jeopardized because of two major adverse forces, viz. environmental predicament and growing social tensions mainly because of increasing economic and social disparities. These factors are likely to delimit the pace of material achievements if not completely stall them in near future, but if long term is counted the consequences are apprehended to be catastrophic. Both environmental and ecological damage and growing relative poverty and inequality in essence spring, through a complex web of relations, from the basic psychic cause, greed which is deeply embedded in human psyche. This book, however, is concerned with the analysis of neither the materialistically accountable delimiting factors nor their moral and ethical substrata. We here explore the role of the State in combating the adverse factors that are likely to delimit the harmonious progress of human civilization.Human civilization has exhibited marvelous achievements in the new millennium but at the same time, as though in perfect conformity with Newton's Third Law, the achievements have been besmirched by uncertainties and signs of un-sustainability.
