The Return of James Mill*

Mariangela Ripoli

Utilitas, 1998, vol. 10, issue 1, 105-121

Abstract: This paper argues that James Mill is worthy of greater study than he now receives. It outlines the course of scholarship on James Mill, and considers various hypotheses to explain the decline of interest in his writings. Two examples, in education and penal theory, are presented of cases in which James Mill's views differed significantly from Bentham's, and anticipated those of John Stuart Mill.
