History has taught us lot of lessons on how to or not to run a state. The statecraft and economic ideologies employed over past century, have resulted in many tumultuous events which had a lasting impact on the governance as well as economy. Irrespective of the style and philosophy adopted from time to time, human nature has been always a predominant factor in determining successes and failures of these systems.

This book discusses the historical implications of all such events and ideologies to conduct an analysis considering geopolitical, human, and systemic aspects. Looking at the current instability of global order and economic discourse, this book goes on to propose a shift in the global order for it to remain peaceful and productive. Finally, this book covers aspects of an ideal state, as to how it should be structured, how it should function and what areas need to be addressed to keep the morality and integrity of all the state components. The Journey of an Ideal State traverses through turbulent past to uncertain present and hopefully better future.
