The English Utilitarians and India

Stokes,Eric

The English Utilitarians and India / Eric Stokes - 1st Edition - London : Oxford University Press ,1959 - 350 p. ; 22 cm.

In contrast with the tendency to regard the Utilitarians primarily as exponents of a moral theory, Stokes here focuses on their claim to have developed a practical science of society. He discusses James Mill's influence as the London head of the Indian administration, Macaulay's Benthamite
reforms as Law Member, and Fitzjames Stephen's significance in the passage of utilitarianism into imperialism.
