The nineteenth-century French statesman and political thinker Alexis de Tocqueville described himself as a liberal of a new kind. This book is a significant contribution to a better understanding of liberalism and of the distinctive character of Tocquevilles liberalism in particular. The main focus of the book is the nature of Tocquevilles liberalism. The author argues that Tocqueville seeks to reconcile the Christian and the citizen in the context of modernity and explores the question of how Tocquevilles work synthesizes religion and politics. Key themes discussed include: the relationship between faith and reason; the individual and community; patriotism and religion; history and nature. An overall picture of Tocquevilles idea of civilization is also presented. This is the first book that seeks to penetrate the set of principles that have shaped the distinctive character of Tocquevilles liberalism. The author shows that the consequences that are derived from these principles generate interesting and significant insights into the nature of liberalism. Tocquevilles Moral and Political Thought will be essential reading for advanced students and academics of political theory, philosophy and those interested in liberalism and the work of Alexis de Tocqueville.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51865561858336,"sku":"NEW0415339510","price":268.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61Sqy6iQRRL.jpg?v=1781664503","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/tocquevilles-political-and-moral-thought-new-liberalism-routledge-studies-in-social-and-political-thought-0415339510","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
