Answer:
Tocqueville argued that every aspect of American society and the success of its social and political affairs was related to the principles of individualism and laissez-faire.
Explanation:
According to him, America was a different place and its people had opportunities and social distinction because they based their lives in five principles which, in general, were embodied in American society:
- Liberty
- Equality
- Democracy
- Civil duty
- Individual responsibility
For Tocqueville, "Civil duty" and "Individual responsibility" were among the most important features he found in Americans. It seems that these ideas guide them, and promotes social and economic conditions to make the country thrive.
