托克维尔(1805-1859),法国历史学家、社会学家。主要代表作有《论美国的民主》第一卷(1835)、《论美国的民主》第二卷(1840年)、《旧制度与大革命〉。《论美国的民主》使他享有世界声誉。其上卷的第一部分讲述美国的政治制度,第二部分对美国的民主进行社会学的分析。下卷分四个部分,以美国为背景发挥其政治哲学和政治社会学思想。出身贵族世家,经历过五个“朝代”(法兰西第一帝国、波旁复辟王朝、七月王朝、法兰西第二共和国、法兰西第二帝国)。前期热心于政治,1838年出任众议院议员,1848年二月革命后参与制订第二共和国宪法,1849年一度出任外交部长。1851年路易·波拿巴建立第二帝国,托克维尔对政治日益失望,从政治舞台上逐渐淡出,并逐渐认识到自己“擅长思想胜于行动”。《托克维尔回忆录》是一本关于1848年法国二月革命的回忆录,对其间许多人物(比如路易·菲力浦、路易·拿破仑、阿道夫·梯也尔、路易·勃朗等)的评述十分尖锐,用语几近刻薄。可能由于这个原因,该书在作者死后34年(1893年)才首次出版。
From America's call for a free press to its embrace of the capitalist system, Democracy in America--first published in 1835--enlightens, entertains, and endures as a brilliant study of our national government and character. Philosopher John Stuart Mill called it "among the most remarkable productions of our time." Woodrow Wilson wrote that de Tocqueville's ability to illuminate the actual workings of American democracy was "possibly without rival."
For today's readers, de Tocqueville's concern about the effect of majority rule on the rights of individuals remains deeply meaningful. His shrewd observations about the "almost royal prerogatives" of the president and the need for virtue in elected officials are particularly prophetic. His profound insights into the great rewards and responsibilities of democratic government are words every American needs to read, contemplate, and remember.

1805年,这一年伟大的皇帝波拿马赢得三皇会战,达到了他军事的颠峰。也在这一年,亚历克西.de.托克维尔出生在一个贵族家庭。名字里带de的法国人的作品,比起巴尔扎克大仲马卢梭之类的草根,通常有一股与身具来的优雅和庄重气象。 1831年,年仅25岁的的托克维尔随友人远涉重...
评分權力:平等、民主与均衡 此書的讀者們有足夠的理由認為,托克維爾之所以著《論美國的民主》(以下簡稱《論》),為的是展現一條与法國革命截然不同的道路。儘管法國悲哀地無法踏上這條道路,但它所體現出的原則值得法國人乃至全人類學習,這原則由人類先賢們在浩瀚歷史中探...
评分在《产权与制度变迁》一书的封底上,周其仁老师写到:“也许因为头脑和心智被真实世界里有待解释说明的现象充斥,我对在想象的约束条件下表现高超智力的学问一概没有兴趣。” 周其仁老师跟随杜润生做农村调查研究而起家学术。巧合的是,张五常老师是在香港闹市亲身卖柑后才写下...
评分《论美国的民主》本书的作者托克维尔出身于法国的贵族家庭,他拥有贵族阶层特有的高傲。可是他却背弃了贵族,理性地看待了民主的必然到来和社会政治制度的转型。书中既有托克维尔对社会政治的失望又充满了对明天未来的美好希冀。 在绪论中托克维尔提到“身份平等的逐...
评分一、托克维尔对于民主的理解 托克维尔从未对民主给予严格的、统一的定义。他的民主概念内涵丰富丰富,不乏不一致和含糊之处,包括趋向平等的社会状态、人民主权的政治形式,中产阶级的统治和下层民众政治等内容;但总体而言,托克维尔把民主理解为一种社会状态和一种政治形式。...
Relations between races; rise of industry; political powers in aristocratic vs democratic societies; women; Russia; New England vs South; mores; the European nobility as the frontier of human experience. Portrait of individual cases, prophetic summaries and aphoristic comparisons.
评分Definitely one of the greatest and most detailed description of the United States I have ever read. Tocqueville is a genius. He would capture the little things in life and in society and examine the reasons behind it and deduce very logical and persuasive conclusion of the States.
