ПРОБЛЕМА СООТНОШЕНИЯ СВОБОДЫ И РАВЕНСТВА В ПОЛИТИЧЕСКОЙ ТЕОРИИ А. ДЕ ТОКВИЛЯ

The scientific tradition of A. de Tocqueville has been the subject matter of many studies. However, many Tocquevillian ideas have been misrepresented. This article tries to make some corrections over the essential part of Tocqueville’s democratic theory, which refers, in particular, to the issue of freedom and equality correlation. That goal is expected to be reached in context of defining and partially redefining the political-ideological portrait of de Tocqueville and, thus, through revealing some reservations in that regard.
