It is not an introduction to Mill, you have nearly covered all key aspects of his philosophy. Especially the part about the representative democracy (adding also Burke on the duty of the representers) is perfect. Great video, thank you.
The clarity of thought and critical analysis is crip and simply amazing
No, it was all Wikipedia.
This guy is pure gold he’s literally helping my GPA
Excellent Presentation - its so refreshing to hear a presentation with the intent of being free from a modern day political agenda .
This channel is awesome, thank you so much for these videos :)
This man is pure gold.
The lecturer, not John Mill ofc
This man is single-handedly saving my GPA
Really wonderfully informative video! This video is probably going to single handily expand my grades for my A-level political Ideology exams! Thank you so very much!
Useful for my research, thanks. Keep it up.
Awesome video. Really helped me understand On Liberty a bit more. Loved your Mill impression!
Great channel!
Mind blowing
Thank you very much!
Thank you brother for your share
Great video. Thanks
Thank you~
It's helpful to understand On Liberty^^
I know I have my biases but it really boggles me that none of this English philosopher spoke against colonisation of other countries.. I mean Mill was a part of East India Company which milked India to it's fullest.. Can't imagine how would he put theory of Utilitarianism on this part??
English has nothing to do with it !
It was the times in which they lived and he believed the colonisation was the only way to make less developed countries more progressive.
@@melanie851 You are right about the fact that English has nothing to do with it. It had nothing to do with being the only way to progress either. It was about the greed of the times as in ours now!
Thank you very much
thanks for the info mate
This is so helpful thank you so so much
that`s awesome. I subscribed.
Excellent
Thanks!
Awesome🎉
This was great. Thank you!
Thank you so much. Could you please do more videos on utilitarianism?
It feels like you’re staring at my forehead and that makes me uncomfortable. Great content though 👍
Buckley vs Valeo created an uneven market of ideas..
You remind me of Toby from the office
J.S Mill is my favorite early-day thinker. How about you guys?
What do you think Mill meant by 'engines of moral repression'?
request to add English Subtitle
Oh, i thought you meant the USS Liberty. That is worth a look too by the way.
Is there a piece literature or film you would compare Mill's teachings on Liberty to?
I'm curious to know, was one of J.S Mills principle Minority rights?
thank you for this insightful video! Is there a video/text comparing Mill's and Wollstonecraft's views on feminism?
There is this text: Eileen Hunt Botting, Wollstonecraft, Mill, and Women's Human Rights (YUP 2016). Also check out my video on Wollstonecraft!
@@James_Muldoon thanks so much for the response, I'll go check it out!
Very nice and useful video. Just I didnt like that you dont look at the camera.
Although Mill did not trust under developed nations to rule themselves democratically, I understand that he was one of the few who were not racist and/or agreed with slavery of some, or were purposefully silent on the subject....Like Kant in his early life, Nietze Aristotle, the supposed jesus, and other so-called. Moral leaders
the only problem I have with mill is that he relies upon liberty and utility adhhering to one another where as they have often have rather divergent views. Ones act of liberty may affect another happiness
🖤🖤🖤
Awe sure
I hate when they’re reading off a paper above the camera it’s so creepy and weird
Thank sir.... Much more helpful video.....
From---- India 🇮🇳
my daily dose of politics
As an India, I am really upset aboutwestern philosphers like Mill and Aristotle
Nice rundown on JS Mill. Not trying to be illiberal, James, but I believe the picture of his dad is actually David Ricardo, and that pic with his wife is is that of his wife's daughter.
Irony is that India was very well civilized before mills was born.

I don't know if you noticed but your profile's pic says PP.

Cool channel - you need to get the teleprompter angle right, bc there's a difference between being taught and seeing a man reading a text...
Great video. But I can’t concentrate looking him staring at his teleprompter. I guess he gotta center his camera better
I genuinely thought he was blind ffs
DWEM. Good. Red Pill. Matrix Crew.
He received a salary from the East India Company, so his 'happiness' was
more important than that of 300 million Indians, who were treated as
slaves. So 'thinking' about 'happiness' and 'rights' are useless when
you are unable to put yourself in others shoes. His theory may be true,
but it was also a way to justify his hypocrisy.
That's why philosophy is so tricky and theory always sounds better than practice.
Gonna throw the baby out while you’re at it?
I appreciate your video. I have been going through video's on this topic and find most are a bit daft, being largely polluted by the posters assumed political ideas and so, at least to my eye, not appearing as nearly as objective. Of course that could just be my political eye, but in any case, your presentation fed several interesting questions to my thinking whereas the rest as just largely shown a good bit more injudicious thinking.
Should read mills autobiography! The professor got lots of information from there it seems. The first chapter is Mill's flexing his brilliance built from his father's intense schooling. I find it hilarious and dope.
@@joshuabuitrago6498 There are people who have a mental life far in advance of their temporal peers. This does produce results that seem ridiculous to their peers, or hilarious if you prefer, but which to many several centuries later were actually rather on the mark, or dope, if that's what one means by the term. A couple other examples are, to my thinking, Cromwell and Charles Sumner. Nevertheless, they were not perfect nor was their thinking flawless, but it was far ahead of their times, and so alien to the thinking of so many of their times that it becomes difficult for us to place them in the proper perspective. The key to all this, in my thinking, is that they had minds that were fundamentally more logical than rational. They naturally saw the logical truths as truths, rather than seeing the common and prevalent rationalizations of their time as truth. They didn't go along with what everyone thought just because everyone thought it.
I think your claim that Mill reserved Liberal governance for European countries is overstated. He refers to barbarian societies alongside referring to how children have to become educated before adult guidance is removed. Elsewhere in On Liberty he recognises Indian and Chinese societies as the products of established civilisations, but particularly in the case of Chinese society as an example of the harm resulting from suppression of Liberty.
In On Liberty, it is clear to me from the context that Mill is referring to societies in which education is absent, when he uses the term barbarian.
I think there is an earlier work, when Mill was still employed by the East India Company where he is more ready to defend colonialism, but this point of view is much more restricted in On Liberty.
Every interpretation of Mill is different.
