Abstract:	"Machiavelli's ideas are as important in our time as in his own. His insights and prescriptions help us make sense of today's political upheavals and natural calamities, and reduce them to a working order. The essays in this volume explore Machiavelli's central concerns: statecraft and order, liberty and citizenship, diplomacy and leadership, modes of strategization, the quest for empire-all set against the basic contention between autarchy, oligarchy, and democracy. They also address the ethical and behaviourial factors behind political practice, such as force, suasion, ambition, corruption, and vigilance in public discourse. Several essays consider the role of language, text, and the imagination in Machiavelli. Two pieces bring the Machiavellian discourse closer to our own times, in relation to Gandhi, Gramsci, and Althusser"--
