Kautilya, also known as Chanakya, was an ancient Indian philosopher and statesman known for his strategic political treatise, the Arthashastra, which emphasizes statecraft, economics, and military strategy. In contrast, Aristotle, the Greek philosopher, focused on ethics, metaphysics, and the nature of knowledge in his works, such as Nicomachean Ethics and Politics. While Kautilya's approach is pragmatic and often seen as utilitarian, dealing with realpolitik and power dynamics, Aristotle's philosophy tends to emphasize moral virtues and the ideal state. Both thinkers have significantly influenced political thought, but their methodologies and cultural contexts differ markedly.
