'The Prince' influenced many thinkers, from political theorists like Hobbes and Rousseau to leaders such as Napoleon Bonaparte. It’s still widely studied for its insights into human nature, leadership, and political power. While 'The Prince' appears straightforward, scholars debate Machiavelli's intentions. Some believe he genuinely sought to offer practical advice for rulers, while others argue it was a satire or a commentary on the corruption he observed in Italian politics.

In this work, Fukuyama explores the role of identity in contemporary political life, arguing that the desire for recognition of one's dignity is a fundamental human need that is increasingly driving political movements around the world. He explains how identity politics has shaped recent political developments, such as the rise of populism, nationalism, and the resurgence of leaders. This book is a timely exploration of how identity shapes human behavior and political outcomes, offering insights into why political discourse has become increasingly polarized and how societies can move toward greater cohesion.
