Eric Klinenberg Quote
Alexis de Tocqueville admired the laws that formally established America's democratic order, but he argued that voluntary organizations were the real source of the nation's robust civic life. John Dewey claimed that social connection is predicated on the vitality and depth of close and direct intercourse and attachment. Democracy begins at home, he famously wrote, and its home is the neighborly community.
