| الوصف: | Forty years ago, Seymour Drescher argued persuasively that Alexis de Tocqueville and Gustave de Beaumont drew throughout their public and intellectual careers on a mutual fund of research, notes, and conversations. Beyond Tocqueville’s undisputed superiority as thinker and writer, however, there remained important differences between them. If Tocqueville was the anthropologist of modem equality, Beaumont was the horrified observer of unjust inequality. His romantic and evocative style, noted Drescher, was often morally polarized: “black and white, lord and peasant, free man and slave, famine and opulence.” Moreover, Beaumont was sometimes a more faithful purveyor of facts and contemporary opinion. |
