Exploring the life, work and ideas of the great 19th Century
utilitarian philosopher Jeremy Bentham, this study takes a unique
look at his intellectual project from the point of view of the
development of his political thought and later reassessment of his
own ideas. Placing Bentham's work in its historical and
intellectual context, Utilitarian Philosophy and Politics considers
in particular Bentham's utilitarianism in relation to his later
engagement with political and constitutional reform. James Crimmins
argues that, despite being one of the most argued over philosophers
of the 19 th century, Bentham remains one of the most misunderstood
of political philosophers. By attempting to look again at the
context in which Bentham was writing and his self-conscious concern
with his own legacy, this book offers a new and comprehensive
account of this major political and moral thinker.
