Yes, many of Machiavelli's ideas on power, leadership, and governance are still relevant today. Concepts such as realism in politics, the importance of maintaining power, and the use of manipulation and strategy remain influential in political theory and practice. However, some of his ideas, such as the justification of unethical behavior for political gain, are more controversial and less accepted in contemporary politics.
In Medieval England a legal idea is that they gave death penalty, and still do nowadays.
Niccolo Machiavelli was born on May 3, 1469 in Florence, Italy. Machiavelli was a political philosopher and diplomat during the Renaissance, and is most famous for his political treatise, the prince. (1513), that has become a cornerstone of modern political philosophy.
He was the first philosopher to take a factual and cynical dissection to political science. His book 'The Prince' was, and still is to a good degree, a premier tome of the subject. His name has become synonymous with evil.
Niccolo Machiavelli's "The Prince", written in 1532, is in essence a leadership manual. It consists of advice on how to gain and maintain power. The precepts set out by Machiavelli are not restricted to the time they were written - they are instructions on dealing with people and organisations - and they are as relevant to a modern captain of industry as they were to a renaissance lord.
The political ideas of the Radical Republicans were the strict policies of slavery. Many Southerners still refused to accept abolishing slavery in the 14th Amendment and believed Africans should not have equal rights.
The Republican Party is still working from their 19th century platform; more's the pity.
It was considered sinful to follow Niccolo Machiavelli's advice because it suggested in his book The Prince that future leaders should rule with reason and make choices based on ideas of humanism over religious beliefs. Unfortunately this was still fairly dangerous territory for men to speak of in his time, seeing as the Medici (a wealthy family who ruled through the church) was still in power. Machiavelli suggested that the qualities of a leader were of a kind sort but, when needed, could be the exact opposite. He was the one to propose many of the ideas on politics and philosophy that numerous world leaders use today. Therefore, although his ideals were very realistic, is seemed to cause a wave of trouble within the church. This is why it was considered sinful to follow Machiavelli's advice.

I believe that the problem is that despite the many people who profess to have a tremendous knowledge of political science and who have impressive academic credentials, the world is still very politically messed up. Political scientists are good at commenting on political problems but so far have not been as successful at solving them.
