The Machiavellians

Book • 1943
James Burnham's "The Machiavellians" is a seminal work in political philosophy that analyzes the ideas of several influential thinkers, including Pareto, Mosca, and Sorel.

Burnham examines their theories on power, elites, and the dynamics of political systems.

The book challenges traditional notions of democracy and explores the role of elites in shaping society.

Burnham's analysis offers a critical perspective on power structures and their influence on political outcomes.

The book remains relevant for its insights into the enduring nature of power dynamics.
