Instead of your usual episode of The Weekend Intelligence, we are bringing you a new narrative series from The Economist.
In Tocqueville Road Trip our US Editor John Prideaux retraces the steps of the French aristocrat Alexis de Tocqueville, as America turns 250. He wrote probably the best book on American politics by a foreigner, and he did it in 1831, when the country was barely 50 years old. How much of what he saw remains? And how worried should we be about what's changed?

The Weekend Intelligence team is on a short hiatus. We're using the time to report, gather and polish more stories for you. We'll be back in July.
