Machiavelli is widely considered as one of the most influential philosophers when it comes to politics. His grand work, “The Prince” is a 16th century political treatise. Machiavelli was an Italian diplomat and political theorist.
Many of us are familiar with his famous quote, “the end justifies the means”. We use it on a daily basis. Machiavelli’s idea is that “a good outcome excuses any wrongs committed to attain it”. For example, if a politician uses illegal funds to win the election, and he is a good candidate, the end will justify the means. Politicians nowadays have understood this quite literally.

This documentary does a great job of explaining his life, his political views, and how his political theories influence us several centuries later.
