项目摘要

The aim of the research project is the development of Tocquevilles dynamic understanding of democracy, which influences the democracy debate to this day. The focus of his empirical sciences of democracy is on new political and social forms. It combines both practical observations and theoretical conceptualizations. Fundamental to the project is the analysis of three major fields of discourse, in which Tocqueville has developed his conception of democracy and political knowledge as a link between theory and practice. These include, first, the political-parliamentary debates, in which Tocqueville attended as a delegate, expert and government representative. Then there is the journalistic debate about society and culture in America. In this Tocquevilles view of America and its dynamic development of democracy occupies a singular position. Finally, the academic discourse of democracy in France, England and America, in which Tocquevilles theory has developed. During the project, new important debates have shown, including the dispute over the substantive orientation of the Académie des sciences et sociales, the political and parliamentary debates on local self-government and the political interpretation of the French Revolution under a historical and philosophical perspective. The presentation of this core debates that are relevant to an understanding of Tocquevilles work, which always combines theoretical arguments with practical political reform proposals, has particular importance to the project. That makes this proposal necessary. The representation of these debates offer previously insights in Tocquevilles research work and institutional connections and open far-reaching insights into his social networks.

该研究项目的目的是发展托克维尔对民主的动态理解，这影响了民主辩论至今。他的民主实证科学的重点是新的政治和社会形式。它结合了实际观察和理论概念。该项目的基础是对话语的三个主要领域的分析，托克维尔在其中发展了他的民主和政治知识概念，作为理论与实践之间的联系。首先，托克维尔作为代表、专家和政府代表参加了政治议会辩论。然后是关于美国社会和文化的新闻辩论。托克维尔对美国及其民主动态发展的看法在这一观点中占据了独特的地位。最后是法国、英国和美国的民主学术话语，托克维尔的民主理论就是在这些话语中发展起来的。在该项目期间，出现了新的重要辩论，包括关于科学和社会学院的实质性方向的争议，关于地方自治的政治和议会辩论，以及从历史和哲学角度对法国大革命的政治解释。托克维尔的作品总是将理论论证与实际的政治改革建议结合起来，提出与理解托克维尔的作品相关的核心辩论对本项目具有特别重要的意义。这使得这项提议成为必要。这些辩论的代表性提供了以前托克维尔研究工作和机构联系的见解，并打开了对他的社交网络的深远见解。
