Tocqueville, Democracy, and Religion: Checks and Balances for Democratic Souls
Kahan, Alan S. (Professor of British Civilisation, Professor of British Civilisation, University of Versailles / St. Quentin-en-Yvelines)
A groundbreaking study of Tocqueville's views on the role of religion in democratic societies: the separation of church and state and the spiritual checks and balances religion provides to democracy. Intellectually grounded in nineteenth-century French politics, Tocqueville's insights continue to offer new perspectives on this relevant issue.
