A groundbreaking study of Tocqueville's views on the role of religion in democratic societies: the separation of church and state and the spiritual checks and balances religion provides to democracy. Intellectually grounded in nineteenth-century French politics, Tocqueville's insights continue to offer new perspectives on this relevant issue.
