Democracy in America is a classic treatise on the democratic structure of American society, written following a trip to the United States and Canada in 1831. Democracy in America is one of the key texts of liberal democracy and "the first profound analysis of American political life." Political scientists, sociologists, and historians still consult this book.

De Tocqueville himself was a French political figure and thinker, one of the founders of sociology and political science in France, who created a work at the intersection of political philosophy, sociology, and journalistic reporting.

The treatise is important not only as an analysis of the American experience, but also as a reflection on the fate of Europe: de Tocqueville constantly compares the United States and France, discussing the dangers of the tyranny of the majority, the rise of bureaucracy, and "soft despotism."

This edition of the Exclusive Classics series is a convenient pocket-sized format with a recognizable design that fits neatly on a shelf next to other important texts on philosophy and political science.
