Utilitarianism and Distributive Justice: Jeremy Bentham and the Civil Law
Kelly, P. J. (Associate Research Assistant, Bentham Project; Visiting Research Scholar, Associate Research Assistant, Bentham Project; Visiting Research Scholar, University of Michigan)
This exposition and sympathetic defence of Bentham's utilitarian theory of justice argues that Bentham proposed a system of distributive justice and moral responsibility which is not incompatible with a moderate welfare state and a Liberal conception of individual freedom.
