The essays cover Tocqueville's major themes (liberty, equality, democracy, despotism, civil society, religion) and texts (Democracy in America, Recollections, Old Regime and the Revolution, other important reports, speeches and letters). The authors analyze both Tocqueville's contributions as a theorist of modern democracy and his craft as a writer. Collections of secondary work on Tocqueville have tended to fall into camps, either bringing together only scholars from one point of view or discipline, or treating only one major text. This Companion transcends national, ideological, disciplinary, and textual boundaries to bring together the best in recent Tocqueville scholarship. The essays not only introduce Tocqueville's major themes and texts, but also put forward provocative arguments that advance the field of Tocqueville studies. 410 0$aCambridge companions to philosophy. 606 $aPolitical science$xPhilosophy 615 0$aPolitical science$xPhilosophy. 676 $a320/.092 702 $aWelch$b Cheryl B. 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996216732403316 996 $aCambridge Companion to Tocqueville$91111480 997 $aUNISA
