About This Book
The Cambridge Companion to Tocqueville is a collection of critical interpretive essays by internationally renowned scholars of the work of Alexis de Tocqueville. The essays cover Tocqueville{u2019}s principal themes {u2013} liberty, equality, democracy, despotism, civil society, religion {u2013} and his major texts (Democracy in America, Recollections, Old Regime and the Revolution, and other important reports, speeches, and letters).
The authors analyze both Tocqueville{u2019}s contributions as a theorist of modern democracy and his craft as a writer. Collections of secondary work on Tocqueville have generally fallen into camps, either bringing together only scholars from one point of view or discipline or dealing with only one major text.
