Ancient Texts: Kautilya's Arthashastra - Chapters 16-20 (Part 4 of Book 3)
Chapters 16 through 20 of Arthashastra turn from the definition of rights to their enforcement. What happens when a debt is not paid? What remedy does a depositor have when the depositary refuses to return his property? How is a pledge to be sold when the borrower defaults, and what happens to the surplus?
