What do classical elitists like Pareto and Mosca have in common
with Marxists like Labriola and Gramsci? In this collection of
essays, Joseph Femia argues that all four thinkers are united by
the 'worldly humanism' they inherited from Machiavelli. Their
distinctively Italian hostility to the metaphysical abstractions of
natural law and Christian theology accounted for similarities in
their thought that are obscured by the familiar terminology of
'left' and 'right'. The collection includes critical essays on each
of the four thinkers, as well as an introductory chapter on their
links with Machiavelli.
