Meer over het boek

Focusing on the relationship between authority and individuality, John Stuart Mill's philosophical work explores the principles of utilitarianism as applied to society and governance. He argues for the necessity of individuality as essential for achieving higher pleasures, while also critiquing democratic practices that can lead to the "tyranny of the majority." Mill outlines three fundamental liberties for individuals, objections to government intervention, and maxims that define the individual's role in society, forming a comprehensive doctrine on liberty and personal freedom.
