On Liberty and Utilitarianism (Bantam Classics) Book Information:

sent a thought-provoking search for the true balance between the rights of the individual and the power of the state. Thoroughly schooled in the principles of the utilitarian movement founded by Jeremy Bentham, John Stuart Mill nevertheless brings his own unique intellectual energy to issues such as individual freedom, equality, authority, happiness, justice, and virtue.On Liberty is Mills famous examination of the nature of individuality and its crucial role in any social system that expects to remain creative and vital. Utilitarianism brilliantly expounds a pragmatic ethic based on one controversial proposition: actions are right only if they promote the common good and wrong if they do not. While much of Mills thinking was eventually adopted by socialists, it is in todays democratic societieswith their troubling issues of crime, freedom of speech, and the boundaries of personal libertythat his work resounds most powerfully.
