Alexis de Tocqueville, who later became French foreign minister, traveled through America at a time of profound political and social upheaval. Based on his impressions, the young Tocqueville presented a clear-sighted political analysis, in which he compared at length the governmental systems of Europe, which were in the process of upheaval, with the now consolidated democracy of America, and warned against the "tyranny of the majority".
