O realismo político de Maquiavel

"É claro que um príncipe não pode e não deve respeitar as suas promessas [...] Se todos os homens fossem bons, um tal conselho seria injustificável, mas como os homens são maus e não respeitam as promessas que vos fizeram, semelhantemente vós não deveis também respeitar as promessas que lhes fizestes. O príncipe não terá nunca falta de razões legítimas para justificar a ruptura de uma promessa...

Vale mais ser amado que temido, ou vale mais ser temido do que amado? A minha resposta é de que o príncipe deve desejar ser, ao mesmo tempo, amado e temido. Mas como são coisas dificilmente conciliáveis, pretendo que, se for preciso optar, é mais desejável, de longe, ser temido em vez de ser amado..."

Maquiavel (1469-1527) escreveu O Príncipe. Nessa obra defendeu o realismo político e propôs um ideal: a supremacia da razão de Estado

  1. Fui buscar este extracto de "O Príncipe" em jeito de resposta à seguinte pergunta do meu amigo ccz:

    Teresa,
    Que acha desta estória?
    .
    "Germany faces a potential wave of corporate restructurings, some of its top managers say, because companies have deferred job cuts to help ensure the re-election of a business-friendly government at next month’s federal elections.

    Senior managers and institutional investors say there has been an implicit “pact” not to announce big job cuts ahead of the September 27 ballot."

  4. Estimada amiga Teresa
    Eram outros os tempos, os de Maquiavel. Desculpe discordar mas como já exerci cargos de chefia entendo que é preferível ser amado a ser temido. Quando se é temido há sempre uma faca escondida pronta a espetar-se-nos nas costas. Quando as pessoas nos reconhecem valor e nos amam torna-se fácil chefiar.
    Mas entendo como muito didáctica e a merecer reflexão esta sua publicação.
    Em Lisboa as temperaturas baixaram substancialmente. Moro perto de Sintra e já fui buscar um edredão para a cama, sim. E, tanto as manhãs como as noites já convidam a um pullover ou casaquinho de malha.
    Ai, também quem me dera ir a Lamego! Ainda não é este ano. A cidade é escura mas linda. E que saudades da bola de carne! Julgo já lhe ter dito que a minha saudosa mãe era natural de S.Cosmado - Armamar. Passei lá muitas férias e alguns fins-de-semana. Nos últimos anos pernoitava sempre em Moimenta da Beira.
    Será que nos vamos conhecer pessoalmente em Outubro?
    Beijinho com ternura.

  5. Bom, este Maquiavel (nunca li o livro, note-se!) deu nome ao maquiavelismo, só isso diz tudo...

    Duvido que seja preferível ser temido a amado, mas que dá menos trabalho, é certo!

    Salazar conseguiria estar 40 anos à frente do país se tivesse sido amado? É duvidoso! Assim, com uma polícia a calar as vozes dissonantes, manteve o poder e aniquilava os adversários, enquanto era temido por todos...

    Beijinhos!
