Klasična politička misao o moći
Classical Political Thought of Power

Summary/Abstract: The paper offers a survey of classical political thought on power. The ancient Greeks discovered two attributes of power: the inner desire to expand and the outer ability to deteriorate. Machiavelli introduced a symbol of equivalence between politics and power, i.e. he believed politics to be a skill for protection and expansion of power. Hobbs noticed that the need for power was the man’s most profound characteristic, and the accumulation, acknowledgement and expansion of his power his deepest life instinct.
