The Prince Maquiavél considers that The human desires and the states of espirítio are always memos them, thus studies the past and looks in history the explanations for the reality of its time for history can be foreseen the future events and be used the same old ways, or in the lack of these to create other forms of action. Maquiavél affirmed that all the men are moved by egoistas interests, in particular personal ambition and the material prosperity to any cost. Homo hominis lupus (the man is the wolf of the man). The privations lead the man to the work, to the associative life. However, in the groups associates conflicts appear, since in each group, until individually each one search its proper interests. The politics appears as instrument of being able, whose the manifest importance if in the search of instruments and the definition of objectives to establish the order and to hinder the destruction of the society. Maquiavél is called the father the modern society. Such direction of Maquiavél traced the first ideas of the doctrine of the Modern State, which is, the State to be consolidated and as required strong absolutist without moral limitation for the action of the governing authority, and positivista conception notadamente moved away from the natural law. From Maquiavél gorverno occurred an exchange of the classic doctrines of the politics based on the one ideas limited and of the ethical bases (moral bases). The ends justify the ways. For Maquiavél, the State was an end in itself exactly. The supreme obligation of the governor is to keep the order, the power and the security of the Country that governed. For such, the governor must use the ways necessary to enable it it this obligation, adopting: ) He must not have confidence in governed its; b) It does not have of them to wait loyalty or affection, however respect and its decisions; c) If necessary it will be, to be cinico and enganoso, of form to convince governed its that they are working for them; d) It must make the good in small doses, but if need to make something stronger or violent, must make it quickly, of form not to cause the horror or revolt, but the observance and respect; e) In the workmanship the Prince, points that the governing can be praised or be hated; f) The Prince must act of form to prevent to go to ruin itself, but in contrast he is preserved. If necessary it will launch ones against the others, in prórpio advantage or will leave the things to happen simply; g) The Prince must be cautious, being the prudence its main virtue. He must use other virtues that have of careful form to prevent its ruina. In contrast one will have vices, he must make them to seem virtues, objectifying its proper security and its welfare.
