: Fastcase Legal NewsFree Book of the Month: Alexis de Tocqueville's Democracy In America
Each month Fastcase hosts a book (as a PDF document) that has fallen out of copyright for your legal reading delight. This month we bring you Alexis de Tocqueville, a French observer and critic of American democracy. Below are some quotes taken from the text:
"The greatness of America lies not in being more enlightened than any other nation, but rather in her ability to repair her faults." "There is hardly a political question in the United States which does not sooner or later turn into a judicial one."
?Americans are so enamored of equality that they would rather be equal in slavery than unequal in freedom.?
