Final Thoughts on Machiavelli and The Prince (Machiavelli, Pt. 6)
Final part of our series on Niccolò Machiavelli, part of a larger series, Foundations of Western Political Thought. In this video I give my personal opinions on The Prince, which are mixed, but on the whole positive. Machiavel was a writer and diplomat in Renaissance Florence, in Italy, a city dominated for much of his lifetime by the Medici dynasty.
