Socialism

As one of the most influential books of the 19th century, 'Socialism' by John Stuart Mill changed the shape of political discourse around the world. This book is set at the intersection of social order and individual liberty, with political and economic ideas analyzed against a backdrop of social theory. 'Socialism' has fresh import due to the persistence of social and economic injustice around the world. As one of liberalism's most strident defenders, Mill advocates fundamental principles of humanism without dismissing socialist forms of economic organization.
