    In the chapter assigned‚ Machiavelli asserts that it is not only acceptable‚ but necessary for a ruler to go back on his word if his previous promises place him at a disadvantage. In this paper‚ I will argue that the purpose of this passage is to persuade readers of the notion that being a good leader many times involves actions that would not be considered “good” as such.
