520 _aThe prince has been the dominant archetypal model of being and becoming in modernity and despite the supposed beheading of the kings in the modern world, it is the values of the prince, namely his will to power, that guide us in the modern world rather than the values of an unconditional ethical obligation of the self to the other. 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.
