What theme is featured in machiavelli’s the prince?

The prince is a sixteenth-century political treatise of the Italian diplomat and political theorist Nicolás Machiavelli. The prince is sometimes said to be one of the first works of modern philosophy, especially political philosophy, in which the effective truth is considered to be more important than any abstract ideal. It was also in direct conflict with the dominant Catholic and scholastic doctrines of the time with respect to politics and ethics.

Although it is relatively short, the treatise is the most memorable of Machiavelli's works and he is responsible for putting the word "Machiavellian" in use as a pejorative. It even contributed to the modern negative connotations of the words "political" and "political" in Western countries. In terms of matter, it overlays with the much longer Discourses on the first decade of Livy, which was written a few years later.

The descriptions within The Prince have the general theme of accepting that princely goals, such as glory and survival, can justify the use of immoral means to achieve those ends.
