This book is the last completed work of one of the most
distinguished political theorists and intellectual historians of
our time. Focusing on the political ideas and activities of leading
French liberals from approximately 1805 into the Second Empire,
Professor Kelly presents a distinctive blend of ideological and
intellectual history, biography, analysis of French regimes and
their changes, and his own reflections concerning the wide and
still highly pertinent range of issues considered. Beginning with a
subtle analysis of the complex patterns of agreement and
disagreement between the liberalisms of Benjamin Constant and
Alexis de Tocqueville, the work offers a sophisticated examination
of the attempts of a sequence of liberal thinkers to harmonize
their commitments to political and civil liberty with one another,
and with a profound desire for a legitimate and stable political
order.
