Fortunately, Machiavelli and Greene had something in common: They were both wrong. Recent research from UC Berkeley shows that when it comes to power, nice guys finish first. The researchers found that the most powerful people (according to ratings from their peers) were those who were the most considerate and outgoing. They also found that those who were the most Machiavellian — using things like gossip and manipulation to gain power — were quickly identified and isolated and ended up with no power at all.
然而上述二人的言论都过去片面。伯克利大学的最新研究称,人品佳是得权之首因。如同事评价,位高权重中者往往是最贴心外向之人;而玩弄是非者如马基雅弗利,不久便被识破、孤立以致一无所获。
Studies like these are rehabilitating power’s bad rap. Power isn’t inherently evil, and it isn’t inherently bad to seek power. Without power, you can’t accomplish anything, good or evil. Even those who want nothing more than to make the world a better place, can’t do so without exerting the influence of personal power. It’s the abuse of power and the underhanded things people do to achieve it that cause problems.
如是之学术发现权力生祸昭雪。权力本无错,全当看用者。但若无权,则必无所作为,无论好坏。即使本意全然是好而无权,其言亦无关痛痒。滥用职权、暗流涌动,终将导致祸患产生。
