1 achiavelli describes some of
the moral qualities of his ideal
ruler. Do you think Machiavelli is
right when he says a good ruler
must be a good liar? Does this
advice apply in politics today? Do
you think modern politicians seek
to be loved or feared? Explain.
Answer
No, I do not think Machiavelli is right when he says a good ruler must be a good liar. This advice does not necessarily apply in politics today, as modern politicians may seek to be both loved and feared depending on the situation.
