Yet perhaps Machiavelli’s dream should not be confined to Renaissance Italy. Writers as diverse as the American conservative Harvey Mansfield, the European social democrat Maurizio Viroli and the New Left critic Gopal Balakrishnan all appear to agree that Machiavelli is the ‘spiritual forefather’52 of the US Constitution. A free and powerful republic, with a civil religion (the reverence Americans have for their constitution) and both a Roman founder (the Cincinnatus-like figure of George Washington) and a re-founding redeemer (the advocate of total war, Abraham Lincoln) – all are elements of Machiavellian polity that has, thus far, been a remarkable success.
