According to Alexis de Tocqueville in Democracy in America, a democratic society has various characteristics such as individualism and a single-minded pursuit of material wealth. These two characteristics can cause certain dangers to a democratic society such as a despotic and absolute government and also unhappiness.
Alexis de Tocqueville in his book Democracy in America presents a behavior that occurs in democratic America. This behavior is called individualism, which is a “reflective and peaceable sentiment that disposes each citizen to isolate himself from the mass of those like him and withdraw to one side with his family and his friends, so that after having thus created a little society for his own use, he willingly abandons society
