"Every century needs an indispensable guide. The twenty-first century in Asia will see a natural return of the two great civilizations of China and India. Yet so little is known of them, especially to Western minds. And even less is known, even by thoughtful Chinese and Indians, on how these two great areas of culture have interacted for millennia. This brilliant volume shines a light on the two great civilizations that will once again drive world history. No volume could be more timely, more relevant, and more needed than this one. Ignore it at your peril. Read it and you will be enlightened."--Kishore Mahbubani, Distinguished Fellow, Asia Research Institute, NUS, and author of The Asian 21st Century "With the recently elevated economic and political power of China and the great potential of India in the twenty-first century, interdisciplinary dialogue and engagement such as is found in this book is necessary for contemporary debates in political theory and international relations."--Kuiyi Shen, Professor of Asian Art History, Theory, and Criticism, University of California, San Diego "A pioneering volume that assembles some of the most important scholars of Chinese and Indian historical political thought to think athwart and across their specialized regions. It is important not only because Chinese power and an emergent India will play a significant role in global politics but also because these traditions may embed alternative visions and ideals from contemporary international politics. Commendably, the authors steer away from provocative politicized positions to focus on statecraft as it reflects fundamental values of society, rulership and life."--Prasenjit Duara, Duke University "Bridging Two Worlds enriches our knowledge about ancient Chinese and Indian political thoughts and theories, which represent a significant contribution of the two great Asian civilizations. It tries to bridge: first, China and India, with an academic dialogue between their ancient but diverse political ideas; second, past and present, to make sense of the present political and international practices by exploring the traditional codes; third, East and West, to complement the West-dominated political and IR theories. This book deserves a wide audience within the academy and beyond."--Li Li, deputy director and senior fellow, Institute of International Relations, Tsinghua University, China > "This excellent book brings together top scholars from the fields of Chinese and Indian political theory and philosophy. There have been few books that compare Chinese and Indian thought, and as the two countries become increasingly involved in cultural, political, and economic exchange, Bridging Two Worlds provides a much-needed philosophical perspective on present India-China relations."--Viren Murthy, author of The Politics of Time in China and Japan: Back to the Future
