Abstract | Alexis de Toqueville's defense of classical education in a democratic context, as presented in "Democracy in America," and its place in the American debate over the utility of liberal education are discussed. The relationship of the right to liberty and the worth of intellectual liberty, and the problems presented by the concept of aristocracy in a democracy, are examined. (MSE) |
