Our aim, in this text, is to show that the notion of force (which does not appear explicitly in the Prince of Machiavelli, in the contexts of conquest-conservation and foundation-conservation), is, actually, a sense of how the force can be treated as political activity. Our aim, in this regard, is to show that while political activity: (1) force is supported by different possibilities of use and, mainly, that (2) force, in the Prince, can be conceived as a virtù exercise.
