"Town meetings are to liberty what primary schools are to
science; they bring it within the people's reach, they teach men how to use it
and how to enjoy it. A nation may establish a free government, but without
[local] institutions it cannot have the spirit of liberty?"
-Tocqueville, Democracy in America
The type of town meetings Tocqueville is talking about are
those where all the adults are expected to show up at least once a week and
make the important decisions for the town.
Do we have the spirit of liberty in modern America?
Tocqueville says it "cannot" exist without universal participation in local
government.
