Political principles in Machiavelli. Between the art of the State and morality
Keywords:
Machiavelli, morality, political principles, art of the State.
Abstract
The studies of political philosophy about Machiavelli`s work seem to be marked by two trends. First, the autonomy of the politics from other spheres as morality seems to involve the emergence of some technical mechanisms alien to any values. Second, these studies usually focus exclusively on the political instruments belonging to the “art of the State”, laying aside most of his political subject-matter ideas. This article attempts to save these two limitations by trying to focus on the political principles inserted on the Machiavellian project.Downloads
