Reading Tocqueville

From Oracle to Actor

Herausgegeben: Geenens, R.; Dijn, Annelien De; Loparo, Kenneth A.

Beschreibung

This volume sets up a dialogue between the 'historical' and the 'contemporary' Tocqueville. How does a contextualization of Tocqueville, or a focus on his embeddedness in nineteenth-century political culture, add to our understanding of his political thought? How has the use of his writings in political debate influenced the reception of his work?
