Джон Стюарт Милль — библиография

One of the most important nineteenth-century schools of thought, Utilitarianism propounds the view that the value or rightness of an action rests in how well it promotes the welfare of those affected by it, aiming for 'the greatest happiness of the greatest number'. Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832) was the movement's founder, as much a social reformer as a philosopher. His greatest interpreter, John Stuart Mill (1806-73), set out to humanize Bentham's pragmatic Utilitarianism by balancing the claims of reason and the imagination, individuality and social well-being in essays such as 'Bentham', 'Coleridge' and, above all, Utilitarianism. The works by Bentham and Mill collected in this volume show the creation and development of a system of ethics that has had an enduring influence on moral philosophy and legislative policy.

In one of the most influential philosophical works ever writen, John Stuart Mill explores the risks and responsibilities of liberty. Examining the tyranny that can come both from government and from the herd-like opinion of the majority, Mill proposes a freedom to think, unite, and pursue our pleasures as the most important freedoms, as long as we cause no harm to others.

Die verh?ngnisvolle Neigung der Menschen ?ber etwas, was nicht mehr zweifelhaft ist, nicht l?nger nachzudenken, ist die Ursache der H?lfte aller Irrt?mer." JOHN STUART MILL &t;br/&t; Sp?testens seit dem Arabischen Fr?hling wird dem durchaus komplexen Freiheitsbegriff wieder intensive Beachtung geschenkt. John Stuart Mill differenziert und erl?utert bereits im 19. Jahrhundert ?berraschend zeitgem?? die unz?hligen Ebenen, die den Terminus der Freiheit ausmachen. Er konfrontiert den Mikrokosmos des Einzelnen mit dem Makrokosmos eines Volkes. Mill erl?utert in «?ber die Freiheit» unter anderem wie sehr Pressefreiheit, Bildung einer ?ffentlichen Meinung, die Freiheit des Einzelnen und eines Volkes sowie Rechte und Pflichten eines Herrschers zusammenh?ngen. So stellt er sich der Frage, inwiefern von einem Herrscher oder Lehrer fraglos ?bernommene (?ffentliche) Meinungen noch freie und vor allem wahre Meinungen sind. Ausf?hrlich widmet Mill sich auch der Freiheitseinschr?nkung innerhalb einer Gesellschaft, sei es der Festlegung von Warenpreisen, staatliches Erschweren der Drogenein- und ausfuhr sowie der Giftherstellung oder der Besteuerung alkoholischer Getr?nke. Gleicherma?en setzt er sich mit religi?ser und kultureller Verfolgung auseinander. Auch seine ?berlegungen und Reformans?tze zu ethisch-moralischen Problematiken wie der Verhinderung eines Verbrechens, der Pr?vention von Gewaltexzessen aus Trunkenheit, dem Einschreiten des Staates in die Kindererziehung und -bildung oder die Frage nach sozialer Ungerechtigkeit sind von bissiger Aktualit?t.

“On Liberty and Other Essays” brings together the most important works of philosopher and political economist John Stuart Mill. In “On Liberty” Mill eloquently ponders the question of where the line should be drawn between the freedom of individuals and the authority of the state. As he puts it, “The struggle between liberty and authority is the most conspicuous feature in the portions of history with which we are earliest familiar…” Second in this volume, “Utilitarianism” is the classic exposition of the Utilitarian philosophy, the basic principle of which is that one’s actions should be guided towards outcomes that create the greatest good for the greatest numbers of people. In “Considerations on Representative Government,” Mill makes his arguments for the representative form of government as the ideal one. Lastly, “The Subjection of Women” is an essay co-written with his wife, Harriet Taylor Mill, arguing in favor of equality between the sexes. Arguably one of the most important political thinkers of the modern era, John Stuart’s Mill’s influence on Western civilization cannot be overstated. This representative selection collects together the principal works from which that reputation is garnered. This edition includes an introduction by A. D. Lindsay.

ON LIBERTY is a philosophical work by English philosopher John Stuart Mill, originally intended as a short essay. The work, published in 1859, applies Mill's ethical system of utilitarianism to society and the state. Mill attempts to establish standards for the relationship between authority and liberty. He emphasizes the importance of individuality which he conceived as a prerequisite to the higher pleasures-the summum bonum of Utilitarianism. Furthermore, Mill criticised the errors of past attempts to defend individuality where, for example, democratic ideals resulted in the «tyranny of the majority». Among the standards established in this work are Mill's three basic liberties of individuals, his three legitimate objections to government intervention, and his two maxims regarding the relationship of the individual to society «which together form the entire doctrine of (Mill's) Essay.» ON LIBERTY was a greatly influential and well received work, although it did not go without criticism. Some attacked it for its apparent discontinuity with Utilitarianism, while others criticised its vagueness. The ideas presented in ON LIBERTY have remained the basis of much liberal political thought. It has remained in print continuously since its initial publication. Mill's marriage to his wife Harriet Taylor Mill greatly influenced the concepts in ON LIBERTY, which was largely finished prior to her death, and published shortly after she died.
