The year 2006 marked the two hundredth anniversary of John Stuart
Mill's birth. Though his philosophical reputation has varied
greatly, it is now clear that Mill ranks among the most influential
modern political thinkers. Despite his enduring influence, the
breadth and complexity of Mill's political thought is often
underappreciated. While his writings remain a touchstone for
debates over liberty and liberalism, many other important
dimensions of his political philosophy have until recently been
ignored. This book aims to correct such neglect, by illustrating
the breadth and depth of Mill's political writings, by drawing
together a collection of essays whose authors explore
underappreciated elements of Mill's political philosophy. The book
shows how Mill's thinking remains pertinent to our own political
life in three broad areas - democratic institutions and culture,
liberalism, and international politics - and offers a critical
reassessment of Mill's political philosophy in light of recent
political developments and transformations.
