The Modern Prince: What Machiavelli Can Teach Us in the Age of Trump - Hardcover
by Carnes Lord (Author)
What do leaders need to know in order to be effective? Carnes Lord--a political scientist with extensive experience at high levels of American government--here offers witty and trenchant counsel to both leaders and the citizens who elect them. Exploring such issues as leadership in war and crises, diplomacy, intelligence, the media, and the role of political advisors, Lord enumerates the major challenges confronting modern leaders and offers practical advice on how leaders should deal with them. The Modern Prince anticipates--at times in startling fashion--the situation facing the Donald Trump administration in an ongoing political drama that has few precedents in the history of the republic.
Carnes Lord is Professor of Strategic Leadership at the US Naval War College and director of the Naval War College Press. A political scientist with interests in international relations, security studies, and the history of political philosophy, he served in the White House under presidents Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush. He is the author among other works of The Presidency and the Management of National Security and Proconsuls: Delegated Political-Military Leadership from Rome to America Today.
