Answered by writersparadise

Tocqueville warned of a new kind of tyranny and despotism, under modern democracy, which will have far reaching consequences on American civic life.

He stated that materialism and selfish individualism looks only into the present and does not consider the future. This attitude will have a negative influence on the future.

Alexis Charles Tocqueville (1805 – 1859) was a French political analyst, diplomat and historian who is famed for his two works – ‘Democracy in America’ and ‘The Old Regime and the Revolution’.
