4.0 out of 5 starsPara entender por que estamos tan mal...
By S. Hernandez on October 24, 2003
Format: Paperback
Definitivamente, muchos gobernantes, funcionarios, politicos, hombres de empresa, etc. han tomado a El Principe como un manual. Si alguna vez nos hemos preguntado por que las obras de los politicos no terminan de traer el bien comun en la mayoria de los paises, aqui encontraremos una parte de la respuesta. Para resumir el libro en una frase, Maquiavelo dice que el fin justifica los medios. La crueldad, la perfidia y la intriga son medios para que el gobernante conserve e incremente el Estado. Leer directamente EL PRINCIPE de Maquiavelo, nos puede dejar con un malestar interno, asi que para digerirlo mejor y entender a Maquiavelo, recomiendo leerlo junto con el espectacular ensayo NICOLAS MAQUIAVELO EN SU QUINTO CENTENARIO por ANTONIO GOMEZ ROBLEDO. Este ensayo viene como prologo a la edicion de EL PRINCIPE de Editorial Porrua (Mexico).

5.0 out of 5 starsAmazing
By Renato Passos on August 4, 2000
Format: Paperback
I am a frequent consumer of the so called sub-literature (like most teenagers), but forgive me my dear friends Anne Rice, Marion Bradley, Stephen King, Sidney Sheldon, etc... I love your work, but finally I found myself reading a DECENT and INTELLIGENT and USEFUL book by a genious called Maquiavelo. "The Prince" deserves to be used as a manual, not barely read... I don't say it should be followed blindly, though it should be mentally discussed by all. ESSENTIAL READING !

3.0 out of 5 starsMaquiavelo... algunas veces mal interpretado...
By Fiallo on April 13, 2000
Format: Paperback
En la obra de Maquiavelo se refleja el pensamiento del Renacimiento en su forma más original, libre y abierto despojado de toda preocupación metafísica, dirigido totalmente a observar la realidad humana y describir científicamente las normas y los fines inmediatos que regulan y orientan su desarrollo. El príncipe debe estar dispuesto a obrar contra la fe, contra la religión, si el fin así lo requiere.
La filosofía realista y pesimista de Maquiavelo tiene poco que ver con lo que, con evidente malafe, se llamó más adelante "maquiavelismo", deformando su pensamiento, pues cuando el secretario florentino hablaba de política, se refería a los intereses y modos propios de la política y no a la moralidad, y cuando aducía que el fin justifica los medios, quería significar fin y medios políticos, y nunca formular una cínica norma espiritual de vida.

4.0 out of 5 starsMy comment on El Principe
By Ivan Mejia J. on March 29, 2016
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
En este libro, escrito en 1513 mientas permanecía encarcelado por orden del duque Lorenzo II de Médici, a quien no obstante se lo dedicó queriendo aconsejarlo, Nicolás de Maquiavelo expone una teoría política que se basa en pasar por encima de las restricciones morales, sociales, políticas y religiosas con tal de gobernar, práctica que ha sido bautizada como maquiavélica.
En su libro, Maquiavelo aconseja faltar a la palabra, a los compromisos y traicionar, para mantener el control.
Hecha la salvedad de que el libro ha sido escrito con una redacción antigua, es claro y directo en lo que quiere enseñar.
Se nota que Maquiavelo era un político interesado en la historia y que conocía bien la naturaleza humana.

5.0 out of 5 starsUn libro para tener a mano
By Cliente de Amazon on February 23, 2014
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
Las ideas presentadas por Maquiavelo en este libro son practicables en todas las áreas de labores, aunque tiene un enfoque político se pueden aplicar en todos los ámbitos para manejar situaciones. Es un libro que quizás al principio se torne dificil de leer pero al pasar los temas se irá entendiendo los planteamientos de autor.

4.0 out of 5 starsInteresante punto de vista en cuanto a formas de lograr ...
By Maru on November 23, 2014
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
Interesante punto de vista en cuanto a formas de lograr un principado o dominio, y en especial como, aun cuando se refiere a siglos atrás, puede aplicar a la política moderna. Refuerz mi disgusto hacia la política, ya que reitera como dominantes y triunfantes las cualidades negativas del ser humano. Lastimosamente es una realidad. :-(

5.0 out of 5 starsstill true today
By A. galdamez on January 4, 2014
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
i read it in spanish, because i figured the translation would be closer to its intended meaning. i enjoyed reading it and found myself wanting to discuss- more like defending maquiavelo- with my husband. his pragmatism is a bit amoral, but worth the read, because it is as close as you get to business as usual when discussing nowadays politics. my next read inspired by this book is meditations by marcus aurelius.

5.0 out of 5 starsso far so good
By Jovi on June 22, 2013
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
The requirement of the 20 words for submits it bothers me, this should be optional. I’m pretty sure that many people close the window once this require pups up.. I’d many times… just the rated stars and a brief comment of a couple words should be enough.
