    Sheldon Wolin, professor emeritus from Princeton, is one of this country's most important political theorists. His new book, Tocqueville: Between Two Worlds. the making of a political and theoretical life (Princeton, 2001), is the fruit of several decades of work and makes a fundamental contribution to democratic theory and to our knowledge of the origins and development of liberalism. The IFS colloquium on Wolin's book brings together leading French and American political scientists, historians, and literary scholars who are themselves top experts on Tocqueville's thought. They will spend the day discussing various aspects of Wolin's work and the issues it raises. Sheldon Wolin will then respond to the various commentaries.
