Father Of Modern Politics, Nicolás Machiavelo

Father of modern politics, Nicolás Machiavelo

This work aims to publicize life, contributions and positions on different topics by Nicolás Machiavelli. In the first place with the Renaissance, a new political magnitude appears in the political reality of the world: the national state that struggles for its autonomy, for its liberation from the ties it had on it at the time of the medieval system, by its union andUnitary Organization. 

At the beginning of the 16th century, almost all Western Europe offered an order based on absolute monarchies with absolute power, which adopted a conscious policy of the exploitation of national resources, the promotion of trade, both within a country and throughout the continent, the development of national power, the union of military forces and justice administration. It is also necessary to highlight that the appearance of the modern state at this time was characterized by the absolute lords that centralized the struggle for their superiority (inside, against the feudal lords and outside, against the emperor). 

Being so young for when this happened, it was when he witnessed the power that money had in the world and how he influenced politics. Having a totally different conception of human society, for him, man is by nature selfish and perverse, only concerned about his safety and increasing his power over others;Only a strong and intelligently governed state and without feelings can guarantee an equitable and fair social order that stops all human violence.

Therefore, it is pointed out as one of the three great pulls of monarchical absolutism for the separation of their policy with morality.

 The main purpose of this work is to analyze its biography, works and contributions that you have made to politics and medicine. It should be noted that one of his most important works is "the prince", since he has had a great reach in political philosophy, since this work focuses on advice to govern. This work is considered a precursor text of political science, although today, this discipline has developed far beyond those recommendations raised in that work. 

Machiavelli used his own experiences, which are reflected in most of his works. No one in many centuries had approached to reveal the nature of power and govern in the realistic and naked way. The idea that Machiavelli and his most classic book are usually. 

The assumption that has been justified by the media has been assumed as paradigmatic, although he did not say that. We must never lose sight of the time when he had to live, to understand his position, on how to conquer and sustain political power safely, in his most read and discussed, loved and hated work of the political literature of all time. It was written between July and December 1513, in the town called: Albergaccio, of Sant` Andrea in Perrcussina, near San Casciano. Due to his concern for the fate of Florence and Italy, and anxious to express his thought meditated for many years of politics experience, he is obliged to interrupt his already started comment from Tito Livio and quickly elaborate a new one. ‘The Prince’ is a work conceived without interruption by its author’s mind, thereby underlining the basic importance of the work, has the personal figure of a head of state. Published in its first edition in 1532, consisting of twenty -six chapters.
