The latter is striven by the symbol and reality of sages in history and society. the present essay explores such transformative interrogation of the logic of the prince. It discovers both new spiritual visions as well as socio-political movements striving to transform power and freedom in our individual lives and institutional spaces of society. - Reproduced.  aPrince  aMan and Development
