Did Machiavelli give good advice for Renaissance rulers?

1 answer:

8 0

Machiavelli lived in the 15th century and is sometimes referred to as the first modern political scientist. He aimed to have a say in the way the leaders of the day governed their subjects. He basically told leaders to do as they please and not to have moral obligations to subjects. He claimed that being a virtuous leader would lead to ruin and his subjects being spoiled.....clearly not good advice.
