Michel Onfray- Pour Un Tocqueville de Gauche (CD)
A believer in democracy and freedom, Alexis de Tocqueville (1805-1859) marked history with his acuteness to detail better and sooner than anyone fighting for the spirit of modern democracy. Yet the importance of his work, rarely read in it's entirety, makes it easy to appropriate in fragments and extracts the posterity of his thought and the orientation of his political arguments. Michel Onfray reveals here the shadows of a complex man, resolute defender of individual freedom, on the simple condition of being a White, Catholic, European, property owner... This conference thus allows a genealogy of widely adopted political ideals, from Aron to François Mitterrand, but whose ramifications, often contradictory and ignored, continue to jeopardize the very idea of democracy.
> Due to the current limited nature of music titles, ALL CD & Vinyl purchases are limited to FOUR copies per customer, per item. If you place multiple orders for multiples of the same title, your subsequent orders will be canceled.
