Machiavelli's writings should be used as a warning of how power manifests itself. Is it case of people being drawn into power by their nature, or does it say something about the position of power in a physical sense and how it impacts on the normal everyday people? Warning signs of the beginnings of fascism should understand that it starts from nationalism, not in a state sense because the state can be interpreted as an authoritarian dominant force on freedom, or it can be the lifeblood of a society, because many casualties of the Nazi party were German citizens. But when there is a fierce nationalism of a people, and a clearly defined enemy, and this enemy is in fact internal and part of the society, then there will be violence. If mankind wants to survive then he should make the state and take it global to accommodate all people.
