by Niccolò Machiavelli, Bernard Crick , Leslie J. Walker
In contrast with The Prince, this is an analysis of republics, rather than principalities. Although Machiavelli advocates political necessity and often strong, compulsive leadership in the interest of the state, his ultimate aim in The Discourses appears to advocate the superior and more moral political system embodied in the republic.
