According to the accepted opinion, the political treatise "Siaset-name", or "Book of Government", was written around 1091 and is attributed to Nizam al-Mulk, the famous Seljuk wazir and atabek of the sultans Alp Arslan and Malik Shah. Written in the form of a teaching, richly illustrated with various examples, Siaset-name not only describes the system of government in Iran after 1040, but calls for the creation of a centralized state apparatus, guards, a broad information service, etc. It has become not only a sharp political tool , but really received the approval of the ruler of that time as a fundamental work on government. The book is addressed to historians, political scientists and anyone interested in the didactic prose of the East.
