Popularity and Efficiency
Description
Can a ruler carry out unpopular initiatives and remain in favor with his subjects? In chapter 15 of The Prince, Machiavelli notes that sometimes, to preserve the kingdom, a ruler must do what needs to be done regardless of public opinion. This program addresses the necessity of making unpopular decisions and the role of personal integrity in having these measures accepted. With Michael Dukakis, who despite his opposition to the death penalty was elected governor by voters who supported it, and Poul Nyrup Rasmussen, Jørgen Vig Knudstorp, Bengt Baron, Dr. Ulrich Bez, Lynda Curtis, and Tony Visconti.
