This book brings together J.S.Mill's "On Liberty" and a selection
of influential essays on Mill's Liberalism by a number of eminent
Mill scholars, including Isaiah Berlin, Alan Ryan, John Rees,
C.L.Ten, and Richard Wollheim. As well as comprising a convenient
collection of authoritative commentary upon "On Liberty" for the
use of teachers and students, the essays also reflect a broader
debate about the philosophical foundations of Mill's liberalism,
particularly the question of the connection between Mill's
professed utilitarianism and his commitment to individual liberty.
In a substantial introduction the editors survey the debate and
conclude that the outcome has profound and disturbing implications,
both for our understanding of Mill's classic defence of individual
freedom and more generally for the style of liberal argument with
which Mill is typically identified. This book should be of interest
to students and lecturers in philosophy and political thought.
