Description
The Machiavellians Defenders of Freedom by James Burnham This book presents an account of the modern Machiavellians, a group of influential thinkers who have shaped European politics. Burnham explores the ideas of Gaetano Mosca, Georges Sorel, Robert Michels, and Vilfredo Pareto, as well as a section on Machiavelli himself. He argues that the writings of these men hold the key to understanding politics and preserving political liberty. Burnham's work is notable for its penetrating analysis of political theory and practice. By examining the ideas of these thinkers, he aims to provide a deeper understanding of the nature of politics and its relationship to individual freedom. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in political philosophy and its practical applications. With 258 pages of in-depth analysis, this paperback edition provides a comprehensive look at the modern Machiavellians and their enduring influence on European politics.
