Nyoversættelse af Ole Jorn. Med forord af Anders Fogh Rasmussen. Siden "Fyrsten" blev udgivet 1532 (tyve år efter den blev skrevet), har værket været ombrust af stærkt følelsesladet debat, dybt forkætret og højt beundret, i lige grad til inspiration for Shakespeare som for Hitler.

This treatise on politics was the fruit of Machiavelli's many years of experience as a diplomat and historian and circulated in 1513 but not published until 1532. It was dedicated to Lorenzo de Medici, a member of the ruling dynasty of Florence. In Machiavelli's view the ideal ruler is an effective executive rather than a moral paragon. If one desires power, one must take all the appropriate steps to acquire and maintain it.

This unique and sometimes disturbingly frank political treatise was written in the early 16th century by Niccolo Machiavelli, a political theorist and Italian diplomat. Machiavelli was writing specifically to Lorenzo de'Medici as an instruction manual for "new princes". His perspective on the aims and glory of princes is a controversial but powerful insight into the cold calculations of men of his station in his time.

Wie kann ein Fürst politische Macht erwerben und erhalten? Zahllosen Fürsten und Herrschern diente es als Handbuch für Politik.

Zeitlos modern für alle Gebiete der Wirtschaft und der Politik. Das berühmteste Werk Machiavellis.

He would compile these observations in "The Prince," which would swiftly gain a reputation both as a simple treatise on how to achieve and wield political power as well as an immoral by-the-numbers account of how tyrants can seize and maintain dictatorships.

A phrase often associated with this work is “the ends justify the means.” In other words, Machiavelli believed that acts of cruelty or lawbreaking were justifiable if the purpose of such acts was to advance one’s own power and chances of survival.
