Utilitarianism and the New Liberalism - Ideas in Context
Weinstein, D. (Wake Forest University, North Carolina)
This study argues that nineteenth-century English New Liberalism was considerably more indebted to classical English utilitarianism than the received view holds. T. H. Green, L. T. Hobhouse, D. G. Ritchie and J. A. Hobson were liberal consequentialists who followed J. S. Mill in trying to accommodate robust, liberal moral rights with the goal of promoting self-realisation.
