Perihal e-buku ini

American Institutions and Their Influence by Alexis de Tocqueville is a seminal work offering a profound and nuanced examination of the political and social structures that shaped early 19th-century America. Tocqueville, a French political thinker and historian, provides a comprehensive study of the American democratic system, tracing its origins, mechanisms, and societal impacts. Through chapters covering topics such as the principle of popular sovereignty, the unique township system, the distribution of powers within federal and state governments, the judicial system’s role, and the democratic culture, Tocqueville paints a vivid portrait of American political life. He also explores challenges like the tyranny of the majority, the role of religion, liberty of the press, and the participation of various races in the national fabric. This detailed analysis remains crucial for understanding the strengths and vulnerabilities of democracy, the balance of power in federations, and the cultural underpinnings that sustain political institutions. Tocqueville’s insights offer timeless relevance for students of political science, history, and governance.
