Classical Utilitarianism and the Anxiety of Influence: A Philosophical Dialectic from Mill to Broad
Weinstein, David (Professor Emeritus, Wake Forest University, and Honorary Professor, University of Oldenburg)
This volume reinterprets J. S. Mill and Henry Sidgwick's versions of utilitarianism, showing how they remained a source of tension in English moral philosophy long after their time. It explores how debates over Darwinian evolution and doubts about philosophical method kept classical utilitarianism alive as an 'anxiety'.
