He embarked on this writing project at the very moment when the plague of 1348 had considerably affected the entire Mediterranean region, putting political powers in great difficulty, particularly that of the Hafsids in Tunisia. It was therefore as a politically experienced man that Ibn Khaldun decided at the age of 45 to retire from political life to devote himself to the philosophy of History, considering that in his time political action had become useless, in view of the incessant power struggles. In the Muqaddima, the thinker established in Cairo explains the causes of the birth and death of States. He theorizes the importance of taxation as the foundation of state power and highlights the place of war in the defense of a prosperous state. In the Muqaddima, the Cairo-based thinker explains the causes of the birth and death of states. He theorizes the importance of taxation as the foundation of state power and highlights the place of war in the defense of a prosperous state. The richness of Ibn Khaldun's theory of the state lies in the fact that even today it can be useful for a better understanding of political power. The author: Gabriel Martinez-Gros, professor emeritus of medieval history at Paris Nanterre, specialist in the history of Al-Andalus, has just published Ibn Khaldun. Anthology presented and commented, (Passés composé, 336 p. €23).
