Title: Machiavelli and conflict: the persistence of the origin
Description: In Machiavelli's political reflection, conflict is not a pre-political residue to be eliminated through politics, but rather the permanent origin from which politics constantly re-emerges in view of an increasing conquest of freedom.
Speaker: Marco Mantovani studied philosophy at the Catholic University of Milan (Italy) and obtained a PhD in Philosophy of Social Sciences at the University of Varese (Italy). Nietzsche's philosophy is his main area of research. Before being seconded to the Brussels European School II, he taught philosophy and history in his hometown at the high school where he had been a student.
