Liberty, Equality, and Tocqueville
What advice does Alexis de Tocqueville offer to Americans on questions of liberty and equality? Journalist and scholar James Poulos explains what Americans can learn about themselves from Tocqueville's "Democracy in America" and how the rootedness of our hearts can secure our own liberty in a changing democratic society.
In his book, "The Art of Being Free: How Alexis de Tocqueville Can Save Us from Ourselves" (2017), James Poulos translates Tocqueville’s advice for a contemporary audience, illuminating us on how Tocqueville views the relationship friendship between friendship and freedom in today's society.
As always, the Federalist Society takes no position on particular legal or public policy issues; all expressions of opinion are those of the speaker.
