Machiavelli's ideas would prove influential on neo-Marxism proposed by Gramsci. Antonio Gramsci was a deformed labour organiser and I'm pretty sure he contributed to a socialist newspaper. Anyways he decided to run as a politician and was subsequently jailed. His prison notebooks would lay down the foundations for modern Marxism, which differs from classical Marxism, with Gramsci's invention of cultural hegemony. A person could suffer oppression because of race or religion as well as being a proletariat, in the constant struggle with the bourgeoisie.
