Machiavelli: Politics as an exercise of power

First Edition: July 2015

Machiavelli is the founder of modern political philosophy. In his conception,

Kant: What can we know? What should we do?

First Edition: June 2015

Kant is the most influential thinker

your action may be a universal law.” It is the ultimate expression of the Enlightenment project.
