The introductory material frames liberty regulated by law, the tension between democratic rule and degeneration into license, and the mechanisms that prevent tyranny. It surveys the exterior form of North America, origins and social conditions of the Anglo-Americans, popular sovereignty, state conditions, and the structure of judicial and political authority.","Chapter  Introduction   \nChapter  Introductory  Chapter   \nChapter I:  Exterior Form Of  North America   \nChapter I:  Exterior Form Of  North America   \nChapter II: Origin  Of The AngloAmericans-I   \nChapter II: Origin  Of The AngloAmericans-II   \nChapter III:  Social Conditions  Of The AngloAmericans   \nChapter IV: The  Principle Of The  Sovereignty Of  The People In  America   \nChapter V:  Necessity Of  Examining The  Condition Of The  States-I   \nChapter V:  Necessity Of  Examining The  Condition Of The  States-II   \nChapter V:  Necessity Of  Examining The   \nDEMOCRACY IN AMERICA-VOLUME I By Alexis De Tocqueville  \nProject Gutenberg File Converted into HTML pages by Nalanda Digital Library under Etext Conversion Project (ECP)  \nChapter Introduction  \nSpecial Introduction By Hon . John T . Morgan  \nIn the eleven years that separated the Declaration of the Independence of the United States from the completion of that act in the ordination of our written Constitution, the great minds of America were bent upon the study of the principles of government that were essential to the preservation of the liberties which had been won at great cost and with heroic labors and sacrifices. Their studies were conducted in view of the imperfections that experience had developed in the government of the Confederation, and they were, therefore, practical and thorough .  \nWhen the Constitution was thus perfected and established, a new form of government was created, but it was neither speculative nor experimental as to the principles on which it was based . If they were true principles, as they were, the government founded upon them was destined to a life and  \nCondition Of The  States-III   \nChapter VI:  Judicial Power In  The United States   \nChapter VII:  Political  Jurisdiction In  The United States   \nChapter VIII: The  Federal  Constitution-I   \nChapter VIII: The  Federal  Constitution-II   \nChapter VIII: The  Federal  Constitution-III   \nChapter VIII: The  Federal  Constitution-IV   \nChapter VIII: The  Federal  Constitution-V   \nChapter XI: Why  The People May  Strictly Be Said  To Govern In The  United States   \nChapter X: Why  The People May  Strictly Be Said  To Govern In The  United States   \nChapter X:  Parties In The  United States   \nChapter XI:  Liberty Of The   \nan influence that would continue while the liberties it was intended topreserve should be valued by the human family. Those liberties had been wrung from reluctant monarchs in many contests, in many countries, and were grouped into creeds and established in ordinances sealed with blood, in many great struggles of the people . They were not new to the people . They were consecrated theories, but no government had been previously established for the great purpose of their preservation and enforcement .  \nThat which was experimental in our plan of government was the question whether democratic rule could be so organized and conducted that it would not degenerate into license and result in the tyranny of absolutism, without saving to the people the power so often found necessary of repressing or destroying their enemy, when he was found in the person of a single despot .  \nWhen, in 1831, Alexis de Tocqueville came to study Democracy in America, the trial of nearly a halfcentury of the working of our system had been made, and it had been proved, by many crucial tests, to be a government of \"liberty regulated bylaw,\" with such results in the development of strength, in population, wealth, and military and commercial power, as no age had ever witnessed.  \nPress In The  United States   \nChapter XII:  Political  Associations In  The United States   \nChapter XIII:  Government Of  The Democracy  In America-I   \nChapter XIII:  Government Of  The Democarcy  In America-II   \nChapter XIII:  Government Of  The Democracy  In America-III   \nChapter XIV:  Advantages  American Society  Derive From   \nDemocracy-I   \nChapter XIV:  Advantages  American Society  Derive From   \nDemocracy-II   \nC","cbCaie0EM1AOGvBr","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaie0EM1AOGvBr","pdf",3904951,1,1319,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n# North America: Exterior Form\n# Anglo-Americans: Origin I\n# Anglo-Americans: Origin II\n# Social Conditions of the Anglo-Americans\n# Popular Sovereignty in America\n# Necessity of Examining the Condition of the States I\n# Necessity of Examining the Condition of the States II\n# Necessity of Examining the Condition of the States III\n# Judicial Power in the United States\n# Political Jurisdiction in the United States\n# The Federal Constitution I\n# The Federal Constitution II\n# The Federal Constitution III\n# The Federal Constitution IV\n# The Federal Constitution V\n# Why the People May Govern in the United States I\n# Parties in the United States\n# Liberty Of The (continuation)\n# Press in the United States\n# Political Associations in the United States\n# Government of Democracy in America I\n# Government of Democracy in America II\n# Government of Democracy in America III\n# Advantages American Society Derive From Democracy I\n# Advantages American Society Derive From Democracy II\n# Unlimited Power of Majority and Its Consequences I\n# Unlimited Power of Majority and Its Consequences II\n# Causes Mitigating Tyranny","[{\"question\":\"What problem does Tocqueville say democratic rule must avoid in order to prevent tyranny?\",\"answer\":\"Democratic rule must be organized so it does not degenerate into license and lead to the tyranny of absolutism.
