  • 3 Machiavelli, Niccolò

    (1469–1527) Gen Mgt
    Italian politician. Machiavelli’s The Prince (1532) is one of the earliest works on political theory, embracing the concepts of power, authority, and leadership. In Management and Machiavelli (1967), Antony Jay sought to show the relevance of Machiavelli’s philosophy to modern society.
         Machiavelli was born in Florence, Italy, and served as an official in the Florentine government. His work brought him into contact with some of Europe’s most influential ministers and government representatives. His chief diplomatic triumph occurred when Florence obtained the surrender of Pisa. But in 1512 when the Medicis returned to power, his career came to an abrupt end. He was accused of being involved in a plot against the government. For this he was imprisoned, tortured, and finally exiled.
         He retired to a farm outside Florence and began a successful writing career, producing plays and a history of Florence as well as the books on politics for which he is now chiefly remembered.
