Dans sa vie priv e comme dans sa vie publique, Mill s'acharna d montrer la n cessit d'accorder aux femmes l' galit avec les hommes et d noncer les mauvaises conditions de vie des femmes, combat dont l'apog e fut la publication de ce livre en 1869.Malgr l'am lioration relative de la condition des femmes depuis l' poque de Mill, L'assujettissement des femmes demeure un ouvrage actuel o l'auteur traite le probl me de l'in galit des sexes avec sinc rit et une grande foi.
" On n'a pas laiss de remarquer quelquefois combien est grand le nombre des crits consacr s la v rit de la religion soit pour la d fendre soit pour l'attaquer, et combien est petit le nombre de ceux qui ont pour objet son utilit au moins au point de vue de la discussion et de la controverse. Toutefois, on aurait pu s'y attendre; en effet, dans les questions qui nous affectent si profond ment, la v rit est l'objet qui nous int resse avant tout. Si la religion, ou une forme quelconque de la religion, est vraie, il en r sulte qu'elle est utile; il n'est pas besoin d'autre preuve. Si ce n'est pas une chose utile que de poss der une connaissance irr cusable de l'ordre et du gouvernement de l'univers auquel nous attache notre destin e, quel objet le serait ? Quand une personne se trouve dans un lieu agr able ou d sagr able, un palais ou une prison, comment ne lui serait-il pas utile de savoir o elle est. Aussi longtemps donc que les hommes ont accept les enseignements de leur religion comme des faits positifs, il n'y a eu pour eux qu'une chose douteuse sur laquelle il leur f t possible de poser la question de savoir s'il tait utile d'y croire, celle de leur propre existence, ou de l'existence des objets qui les entourent..."
Le grand principe, le principe dominant auquel aboutissent tous les arguments expos s dans ces pages, est l'importance essentielle et absolue du d veloppement humain dans sa plus riche diversit . (Wilhelm von Humboldt: De la sph re et des devoirs du gouvernement.)Je d die ce volume la m moire ch rie et pleur e de celle qui fut l'inspiratrice, et en partie l'auteur, de ce qu'il y a de mieux dans mes ouvrages: la m moire de l'amie et de l' pouse, dont le sens exalt du vrai et du juste fut mon plus vif encouragement, et dont l'approbation fut ma principale r compense.Comme tout ce que j'ai crit depuis bien des ann es, c'est autant son oeuvre que la mienne; mais le livre, tel qu'il est, n'a eu qu' un degr tr s-insuffisant l'inestimable avantage d' tre revu par elle, quelques-unes des parties les plus importantes ayant t r serv es pour un second et plus soigneux examen, qu'elles sont destin es maintenant ne jamais recevoir. Si j' tais capable d'interpr ter la moiti seulement des grandes pens es, des nobles sentiments qui sont ensevelis avec elle, le monde en recueillerait plus de fruit que de tout ce que je puis crire, sans l'inspiration et l'assistance de sa sagesse presque sans rivale.
For John Stuart Mill, freedom is the "first and strongest desire of human nature" and only enables the individual to fully develop his faculties, mind and morals. All state and social action must accordingly be directed toward granting the individual free development, while his freedom, as Mill formulates it in a principle known as the "principle of liberty," may be restricted under one condition: in order to protect himself or another person. Interventions by the state or society, on the other hand, aimed at forcing the individual to behave in a way that they believe is better or wiser or makes the individual happier are, according to Mill, unlawful and must be avoided at all costs.

The Subjection of Women is an essay by English philosopher, political economist and civil servant John Stuart Mill published in 1869, with ideas he developed jointly with his wife Harriet Taylor Mill. Mill submitted the finished manuscript of their collaborative work On Liberty (1859) soon after her untimely death in late 1858, and then continued work on The Subjection of Women until its completion in 1861. At the time of its publication, the essay's argument for equality between the sexes was an affront to European conventional norms regarding the status of men and women.In his autobiography, Mill describes his indebtedness to his wife, and his daughter Helen Taylor for the creation of The Subjection of Women: As ultimately published it was enriched with some important ideas of my daughter's and some passages of her writing. But all that is most striking and profound in what was written by me belongs to my wife, coming from the fund of thought that had been made common to us both by our innumerable conversations and discussions on a topic that filled so large a place in our minds.While scholars generally agree that John Stuart Mill was the sole author, it is also noted that some of the arguments are similar to Harriet Taylor Mill's essay The Enfranchisement of Women, which was published in 1851.Mill was convinced that the moral and intellectual advancement of humankind would result in greater happiness for everybody. He asserted that the higher pleasures of the intellect yielded far greater happiness than the lower pleasure of the senses. He conceived of human beings as morally and intellectually capable of being educated and civilised. Mill believed everyone should have the right to vote, with the only exceptions being barbarians and uneducated people.
For første gang foreligger The Subjection of Women fra 1869 i norsk oversettelse. Dette er en klassiker både innenfor det feministiske og det liberalistiske tankeunivers. Verket er lettlest, viktig, tankevekkende og morsomt. Mill tar tak i prinsipielle, men også helt konkrete problemer knyttet til kjønnsrollene. Det er på mange måter et merkelig verk med en blanding av beskrivelser, analyse og synsing, noe som blir tydelig i diskusjonene rundt hva som er .naturlig.. I sin framsynthet makter han å overskride det hundre og femti år lange spennet mellom egen tid og vår. Med sin fengende og samtidig grundige stil artikulerer Mill en feministisk, liberal posisjon som er et høyst relevant bidrag i dagens diskusjoner rundt forholdet mellom kjønnene. Kvinneundertrykkelsen kaster lys over et svært viktig spørsmål for den feministiske bevegelsen i et moderne liberalt demokrati: Spørsmålet om hvorvidt kampen for kvinnesak og likestilling kan skjøttes tilstrekkelig gjennom en liberal, egalitær rettighetslovgivning slik den kommer til uttrykk for eksempel gjennom allmenn stemmerett og begge kjønns prinsipielle adgang til enhver posisjon eller levevei, eller om mer radikale, positive tiltak er nødvendige for å få nevneverdig bevegelse i fastsatte kjønnsroller.
Om friheten (1859) er en av filosofihistoriens viktigste bøker og etter manges mening et av de tydeligste uttrykkene for den politiske retningen som kalles liberalisme. Boken tar opp tre hovedtemaer: Det første er individualitet som et av elementene i menneskelig velvære. Det andre er tanke- og ytringsfrihet, og det tredje er grenser for samfunnets makt over individer. Det er også her Mill formulerer sitt berømte harm principle (skadeprinsippet). Individualiteten er essensen i det gode liv; ytringsfrihet og handlingsfrihet er nødvendige forutsetninger for menneskelig fremskritt. Ethvert voksent menneske må kunne stå fritt til å tenke og leve slik det vil, så lenge det ikke skader andre. Mill har en visjon om mennesker som individuelle personligheter, utstyrt med store muligheter og evner til moralske valg og åndelig vekst. Mill vil skape et tolerant samfunn der borgerne samtidig bryr seg om hverandre. I et slikt samfunn tilstreber man respekt for mennesker gjennom en felles dyrking av frihet og individualitet. John Stuart Mill (1806-1873) var en av de mest inflytelsesrike filosofer i det 19. århundre. Han kjempet for likestilling mellom mann og kvinne, allmenn utdan nelse, allmenn stemmerett, prevensjon, bedre skilsmisselovgivning og at koloniene skulle få bestemme mer selv. I 1851 giftet han seg med Harriot Taylor, som han hadde pleid et nært vennskap med i 21 år. Taylor hadde stor innflytelse på Mills tanker og arbeid, og han regnet henne som medforfatter av flere av sine verker.
The Subjection of Women es un ensayo del fil sofo y economista John Stuart Mill. Fue traducido al espa ol bajo el t tulo La esclavitud femenina por Emilia Pardo Baz n.Para combatir lo que John Stuart Mili consideraba un freno al progreso de la humanidad, public en 1869 su emblem tica obra La esclavitud femenina. En ella recogi propuestas igualitaristas de car cter innovador (igualdad y libertad, mejora en la educaci n, sufragio, revisi n de la legislaci n matrimonial...) y cr ticas demoledoras a la situaci n vigente. Sin embargo, Mill tambi n sucumbi a algunos elementos conservadores t picamente victorianos.En este ensayo, Mill argumenta que la esclavitud femenina es una forma de opresi n que impide el desarrollo social y la igualdad de g nero. Mill sostiene que la discriminaci n basada en el g nero es injusta y que las mujeres tienen derecho a los mismos derechos y libertades que los hombres.En La esclavitud femenina, Mill examina las ra ces de la opresi n de las mujeres y argumenta que la discriminaci n de g nero es una forma de control social que limita el potencial de las mujeres. En su lugar, propone una sociedad en la que hombres y mujeres tengan igualdad de derechos y oportunidades. Este ensayo ha sido ampliamente reconocido como un hito en la historia del feminismo y ha tenido un impacto significativo en el pensamiento pol tico y social.No puede, en rigor, la educaci n actual de la mujer llamarse educaci n, sino doma, pues se propone por fin la obediencia, la pasividad y la sumisi n.Emilia Pardo Baz n, 1892
Nell'Inghilterra del 1869, anno in cui John Stuart Mill scrisse il presente saggio, le donne non avevano diritto di voto e la loro funzione sociale era limitata a ruoli domestici. Mill, nella sua attivit di parlamentare, cerc di far passare un emendamento a favore del suffragio universale, ma l'operazione non riusc in quanto la maggioranza parlamentare era composta da conservatori. Mill era invece un fine pensatore e politico liberale che si impegn molto per la rimozione delle disuguaglianze. Comprendendo che alla base della discriminazione contro le donne vi era un problema culturale che aveva origini molto antiche, il filosofo inglese era consapevole di quanto fosse difficile scardinare un'opinione cos forte basata sul sentimento e sul pregiudizio di massa. Tale retaggio culturale, per , non aveva nulla di razionale ed proprio puntando sulla ragione che Mill cerc di argomentare in modo dettagliato l'infondatezza della disparit di genere tra uomo e donna. Mill ebbe quindi il merito di avviare un dibattito, di stimolare la societ ad intraprendere un nuovo percorso che, per , ancora oggi, non stato interamente completato. In troppe aree geografiche persiste la disparit di genere e anche nei Paesi in cui si sono registrati i maggiori progressi a livello legislativo, emergono talvolta residui di cultura patriarcale. Per questo il presente testo di Mill, illuminante per la sua epoca, rimane un punto di riferimento attuale per alimentare il dibattito contro le disuguaglianze.
L'Utilitarismo la dottrina etica di cui John Stuart Mill stato il pi importante esponente. Secondo la filosofia di Mill un'azione buona e, quindi, moralmente valida, se in grado di promuovere la felicit e di ridurre la quantit di dolore. Inoltre, le conseguenze dell'azione devono massimizzare la felicit per il maggior numero di persone. Per via del ruolo fondamentale che occupa la valutazione delle conseguenze nell'intraprendere un'azione, l'Utilitarismo detto anche Consequenzialismo. Mill ha avuto il merito di migliorare la prima formulazione dell'Utilitarismo che fu di Jeremy Bentham e di strutturare il proprio pensiero in modo da renderlo rispettato e meno esposto a critiche. Mill introduce la dimensione sociale del concetto di felicit . Il fine dell'Utilitarismo non , pertanto, la somma numerica delle felicit individuali ma l'individuazione di ci che pu rendere felice il maggior numero di persone. Si tratta di una scelta qualitativa e non quantitativa. Solo attraverso la felicit degli altri si pu trovare la propria felicit . Tra le qualit morali che giocano un ruolo determinante nella valutazione delle conseguenze di un'azione, Mill inserisce la libert , la giustizia e una selezione di piaceri "superiori" da perseguire. In questo testo il filosofo inglese spiega i concetti chiave della sua dottrina, confutando anche le possibili critiche. Non vi dubbio che l'Utilitarismo ha contribuito in modo notevole al dibattito contemporaneo sulla valutazione morale dell'agire umano.
