abstract = "The aim of this Special Issue is to provide a full exploration of Machiavelli{\textquoteleft}s complex and multifaceted international political theory, resuming an interrupted conversation and filling the gap on such a topical thinker. From The Prince to The Discourses, from The Art of War to The Histories, the Special Issue aims to re-explore the key issues in Machiavelli{\textquoteleft}s international thought, and dig in depth into some of its most fundamental aspects: the relevance of human nature in determining political conflict; the influence of his ideas on the Realist tradition; the use of force and the morality dilemma; the importance of laws in the foundation of states and their limitations; the central role played by charisma and chance in influencing foreign policy; the impact of domestic political structures on international politics.",
