Description

Explore the complex history of political theory with this edition of The Dialogue in Hell Between Machiavelli and Montesquieu. This work examines the conditions of modern tyranny and humanitarian despotism through a deep analysis of Joly's original text. John Waggoner provides the first faithful English translation and commentary on this influential work. This edition serves to redeem the original text for serious academic study, moving past the historical association with the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Waggoner's commentary clarifies that the author was neither an antisemite nor a supporter of tyrannical politics, providing a necessary correction to the sordid legacy often linked to this text. Part of the Applications of Political Theory series, this book is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the evolution of political thought and the ways in which literature has been misused throughout history. It offers a clear path to understanding the original intent behind the dialogue and its place in modern political science.
