An Analysis of John Stuart Mill's On Liberty

An Analysis of John Stuart Mill's On Liberty

Ashleigh Campi; Lindsay Scorgie-Porter

In his wonderfully clear and cogent essay On Liberty, Mill contends that individuals should be as free as possible from interference by government. Proposing that individual fulfilment is the surest route to collective happiness, he argues passionately against the "tyranny of the majority," and sets out to create an alternative view of a practical politics that sets proper limits on the powers of government and society. The result, Mill argues, will be not only greater freedom, but also improved social progress. He reached these conclusions by re-interpreting a large body of existing political and philosophical thought – introducing insights drawn from several different schools of thought, and thereby creating an unparalleled defense of classic liberal principals. Much of the clarity of thought that Mill has become celebrated for is the product of his ability to explain meaning, define terms, and highlight problems and issues of definition – making him an exemplar of high quality interpretive thinking.

John Stuart Mill (20 May 1806 - 8 May 1873) was an English philosopher, political economist and civil servant. One of the most influential thinkers in the history of liberalism, he contributed widely to social theory, political theory and political economy. Dubbed "the most influential English-speaking philosopher of the nineteenth century", Mill's conception of liberty justified the freedom of the individual in opposition to unlimited state and social control. Mill was a proponent of utilitarianism, an ethical theory developed by his predecessor Jeremy Bentham, and contributed significantly to the theory of the scientific method.

The original, Dutch version of this book served in 1979 as a doctoral disserta­ tion in philosophy at the Free University in Amsterdam. In this preface to the - slightly revised - English translation, I wish once again to express my gratitude to my supervisors, Prof. J. van der Hoeven of the Free University and Prof. G. Nuchelmans of the University of Leiden, for their excellent and stimulating support. Professor van der Hoeven was associated with this project from the outset. It was a privilege to benefit from his incisive commentaries, especially in those instances where the objective was to break through to more fundamental insights. I shall not lightly forget his friendly and heartening encouragement. I am equally grateful for my discussions with Professor Nuchelmans. I almost always tried to follow his advice, since it was based upon awesome expertness and erudition. I am happy to have found in the person of Herbert Donald Morton, Th.M., M.A., an able and enthusiastic translator. Drs. Gerben Groenewoud made the translations of a number of the Latin citations. I acknowledge permission from Routledge and Kegan Paul and the University of Toronto Press to quote from The Collected Works of John Stuart Mill. And I thank the Netherlands Organization for the Advancement of Pure Research (Z.W.O.) for fmancing this translation.

Freiheit Und Ordnung Bei John Stuart Mill Und Friedrich August Von Hayek
John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) und Friedrich August von Hayek (1899-1992) haben die jeweils bedeutsamsten Schriften zur Verteidigung der Freiheit im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert geschrieben. Das Buch will die Aktualitat ihres Denkens begreifbar machen. Zugleich schliesst es eine Lucke innerhalb der wissenschaftlichen Literatur, in der bisher ein systematischer Vergleich beider Theorien fehlt. Die Arbeit zeigt, dass Hayeks Theorie in permanenter Auseinandersetzung mit Person und Werk Mills entstanden ist. Aus den Aporien Mills erfolgt bei Hayek der Umschlag ins Gegenteil: der Ausschluss jedes Denkens in ethischen Kategorien und die Konstruktion einer a-ethischen, zugleich ethiklosen und ethikablehnenden Theorie. Doch auch sie ist zum Scheitern verurteilt."
