Abstract

Review of the book The Cambridge Companion to Democracy in America by Richard Boyd (editor). Richard Boyd has assembled a team of seventeen specialists with a heavy bent towards political science. The volume comprises sixteen chapters divided into four parts: a first one that deals with sources and contexts to Tocqueville’s masterwork; another that examines the book’s reception and applications around the world; a third part that analyses discrete themes and formal aspects of the work itself; and a final section that brings Democracy in America to bear on contemporary challenges.
