On Liberty - Paperback
Description
by John Stuart Mill (Author)
First published in 1859, On Liberty is a landmark work of political philosophy that challenges the limits of social and governmental authority over the individual.
Writing in the context of Victorian England, John Stuart Mill confronts what he terms the 'tyranny of the majority, ' arguing that social pressure can be as oppressive as state power. At the heart of the book lies the celebrated Harm Principle: individuals are free to act as they wish provided they do not harm others.
Mill defends moral and economic freedom, insisting on personal sovereignty over one's body and mind, and positions liberty as essential to intellectual and social progress. Concise yet profound, this influential essay remains foundational to liberal thought and continues to shape debates about freedom, authority, and the boundaries of collective power.
