This political philosophy book (The Prince) is widely cited as the handbook of autocrats. It’s perhaps as widely misunderstood as it is cited - out of context. Nevertheless, if we considered his advice to leaders generally, it doesn’t stand. His idea that FEAR is easier to control than LOVE, and subsequent advice that therefore the leader should aim to be feared, is ill thought.
The problem with ruling by Fear is that the leader lives in fear too. When you terrorise people, you also live in fear of what they’re likely to do to you should they get a chance. You end up being paranoid, always fearing that they’re planning revenge. This then heightens preemptive violence, increasing your victims and anger. With this, you can’t move or socialise freely. You also end up in an open prison constructed by your terror. You can never live a normal life when you know that many people are angry with your actions, except if your sense of judgement is deranged and you can no longer sense danger.
South Africa chased away their fellow Africans claiming that they are taking over their jobs and appointed an Indian as the minister of education, Africans 🙌
