Machiavelli’s The Prince
I am answering this exact prompt:
Critically assess the following interpretation of The Prince, citing specific evidence from the text to support your argument:
The Prince is a manual of political tactics, not a work of political philosophy. Machiavellis sole concern in writing this book was to show how an ambitious ruler or would-be ruler could increase his own power. The great themes of political philosophy, including justice, the common good, and human nature, are largely absent from the book, since Machiavellis concern was wholly practical and directed towards the well-being of princes rather than being theoretical or public-spirited.
The guidelines are given in the attached document. Please write the essay from the point of view that "The Prince" is indeed a work of political philosophy, and not a tactical manual. Basically disagree with the quote above.

California government
For this week, I would like you to focus on the following:
1. From the knapsack activity, identify one statement that was confusing to you or you thought could be answered in different ways. Tell us what number you are referencing and pose a question to the group (Examples: What did you think this meant? How did you interpret this statement? Did you read it in this way? Can you think of an example of this...etc.).
2. Think about your own privilege. How does knowing your privilege contribute to your participation in the environmental movement, or how might it contribute to your participation in the future (if at all)?
3. Think about California and the NOVA documentary (Decoding the Weather Machine): If you were in a position to advise the governor on environmental policy, what would you suggest and why?
