Freedom of Thought, Expression, & Action: John Stuart Mill's View

Описание: In this clip from a presentation at the 40th Annual International Conference on Critical Thinking (our first online conference), Dr. Linda Elder briefly discusses John Stuart Mill's conception of the sort of freedom which he believed governments were ethically obligated to protect. The clip also touches on what Mill thought to be reasonable limitations on freedom.

This video touches briefly on one or a few aspect(s) of an overarching body of theory known as the Paul-Elder Framework for Critical Thinking, and its content must be understood in the broader context of this framework. You can become more familiar with our approach to critical thinking through other videos on this channel, and through our websites (see below).
