Description

Mill and Liberalism was first published in 1963. Initial reactions varied from the uncomprehending to the splenetic.

In the intervening quarter-century the intellectual climate has changed as reflected by its greatest exemplar, to warrant fresh consideration.

Unlike many commentators, before or subsequently, Maurice Cowling endeavours to view Mill's thought as a coherent whole with a specific proselytising purpose, geared to the emasculation of Christianity and its replacement by a libertarian public doctrine.

This interpretation aroused much contemporary hostility, and in a new introduction Cowling locates Mill and Liberalism within the broader intellectual history of post-war Britain, looking at the various strands of the 'new Right' and relating the academic to more specifically journalistic or political manifestations.
