The dialogue in hell between Machiavelli and Montesquieu : humanitarian despotism and the conditions of modern tyranny
"The Dialogue in Hell between Montesquieu and Machiavelli" is the source of the world's most infamous literary forgery, the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion". John Waggoner's commentary on Maurice Joly's dialogue seeks to update the sordid legacy of the Protocols and redeem Joly's original work.
