Abstract

"Commemorating the 250th anniversary of James Mill's birth and the 150th of John Stuart Mill's death, this volume analyses the Mills' discussions on topics such environment, gender, education, ethics, and lifestyle. John Stuart Mill is an important figure of the classical political economy, and his father played a critical role in the early stages of his intellectual development. The contributions of the two Mills are examined by leading scholars on the theory and history of economics from Japan, Europe and US. They not only deal with the Mills' individual contributions, but also shed light on their relationships and associations with a number of economists and philosophers in Britain between the late 18th and the early 20th century, including Adam Smith, Malthus, Ricardo, Pennington, Torrens, Martineau, Longfield, Morris, Sidgwick, and Marshall. An essential read for scholars interested in the economics of James and John Mill, and reconsideration of their theories and thoughts using the backdrop of the current state of society"--
