John Stuart Mill, On Liberty - Overcoming One-Sidedness - Sadler's Lectures

Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 19th century Utilitarian philosopher John Stuart Mill's work, On Liberty It focuses specifically on his discussion of what he calls "one-sidedness" with respect to truth. In his view, because positions or perspectives rarely encompass the entire truth, it is useful from a utilitarian perspective to give opposed positions a hearing.
