Reading Tocqueville: From Oracle to Actor
Raf Geenens & Annelien de Dijn (eds.)
Palgrave Macmillan (2007)
| Abstract | The essays collected here aim to set up a dialogue between the 'historical' and the 'contemporary' Tocqueville. In what ways does a contextualization of Tocqueville throw new light on his relevance as a political thinker today? How can a focus on his embeddedness in the political culture of the nineteenth century contribute to our understanding of his political thought? Or, conversely, how has the usage of Tocqueville's writings in day-to-day political debate influenced the reception of his work both in the past and today? | |||||||||
