Alexis de Tocqueville'de Toplumsal ve Siyasal Bir Olgu Olarak Demokrasi

Democracy as a Social and Political Fact in Alexis de Tocqueville

In this article Tocqueville's thoughts on democracy as a social and political phenomenon are studied. Alexis de Tocqueville's observations in the United States and his intense intellectual engagement in writing the two volumes of Democracy in America in a certain sense created his social and political thought. Tocqueville generally used 'democracy' as a social rather than a political term to refer to a society market by equality of social condition and by the various passions to which that condition gives rise.
