Dialogue aux enfers entre Machiavel et Montesquieu by Maurice Joly
"Dialogue aux enfers entre Machiavel et Montesquieu" by Maurice Joly is a political pamphlet published in 1864. In this imagined conversation in hell, Machiavelli and Montesquieu debate modern politics and power. Machiavelli cynically demonstrates how noble principles like press freedom and separation of powers can be manipulated to serve a dictator's ambitions. The work satirizes Napoleon III's regime without naming him, showing how leaders can control society through calculated manipulation of media,
business, and public opinion while maintaining an illusion of liberty. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
