Краткое описание:
Tocqueville’s Voyages is a collection of newly written essays by some of the most well-known Tocquevillian scholars today. The essays in the first part of the volume explore the development of Tocqueville’s thought, his intellectual voyage, during his trip to America and while writing Democracy in America. The second part of the book focuses on the dissemination of Tocqueville’s ideas beyond the Franco-American context of 1835–1840 in places such as Argentina, Japan, and Eastern Europe.The articles and contributors are as follows:Part 1: Tocqueville as VoyagerHidden from View: Tocqueville’s Secrets Eduardo NollaTocqueville’s Voyages: To and From America?
