From this perspective, the metamorphosis of the reli-gious in Tocqueville's thought allows to point out the three objectives of "Démocratie en Amerique": to speak about America, to expose critically and comparatively the case of France under the July Monarchy, and to identify the ideal type of this modern democra¬cy which favours freedom and despotism at one and the same time. %G Italian %L hal-03415578 %U https://sciencespo.hal.science/hal-03415578 %~ SHS %~ SCIENCESPO %~ CNRS %~ AO-SCIENCEPOLITIQUE %~ CEVIPOF
