About this audiobook
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
As you read this summary, you will discover that the blossoming of American democracy has followed a trajectory significantly different from that of the French Revolution.
You will also discover :
- that "Democracy in America" is a valuable document that proved to be useful to 19th century French liberals seeking a compromise that would lead to the establishment of a lasting democracy;
- that American democracy is surprisingly contradictory;
- that equality of conditions is a principle and a reality;
- how the United States managed to prevent the emergence of an aristocracy that could compromise the principle of legal equality.
"Democracy in America" is of particular importance to the French public. Indeed, more than any other study of political philosophy, this work allows us to understand why the two democracies (France and the United States) that emerged from the revolutions of the late 18th century took such different paths. In the company of his colleague and friend Gustave de Beaumont, Tocqueville, a magistrate of his state, was first sent to America to study the prison system. Beyond his primary mission, he returned with a much broader and more global analysis of the American democratic system. What are you waiting for to hear his rich and diverse observations?
