| Abstract: | 約翰穆勒作為十九世紀英國最重要的政治哲學家，他的思想在這百年來廣受探討。然在芝加哥大學教授 Jennifer Pitts 有力的詮釋之下，約翰穆勒被認定為十九世紀帝國自由主義的代表人物。本文希望藉由與 Pitts 文獻之對話，並藉對穆勒的文明論之探討重新詮釋並刻畫穆勒思想的全貌。本文認為穆勒並非一位僵化區分文明與野蠻的思想家，相反地，他透過對於邊沁理論的修正更深入解析文明與野蠻的概念，對於穆勒而言，人類社會的發展從非只進不退，穆勒更擔憂的是文明的發展進入遲至，最終導致野蠻的思維蔓延。文明與野蠻對於穆勒而言從非一個二元對立的發展歷程，野蠻的內在力量時刻存在於人類社會中，因此如何透過對於普遍品格的培養來抑制內在野蠻的傾向，才是穆勒文明論的核心關懷。藉由本文之研究能更深入的理解約翰穆勒的政治思想，同時回應 Jennifer Pitts 對於約翰穆勒的論述。
As one of the most important political philosophers in nineteenth-century Britain, John Stuart Mill’s thought has been widely explored over the past century. However, under the influential interpretation of University of Chicago Professor Jennifer Pitts, Mill has come to be regarded as a representative figure of nineteenth-century imperial liberalism. This dissertation seeks to engage in a dialogue with Pitts’ scholarship and, through an examination of Mill’s theory of civilization, reinterpret and reconstruct the full scope of his thought.
This study argues that Mill was not a thinker who rigidly distinguished between civilization and barbarism. On the contrary, by revising Bentham’s theory, he developed a more nuanced analysis of these concepts. For Mill, human social development was not simply a linear progression without regression. What concerned him more was the stagnation of civilization, which could ultimately lead to the spread of barbaric thinking.
In Mill’s view, civilization and barbarism were never part of a binary developmental process; the inner forces of barbarism always existed within human society. Therefore, the core concern of Mill’s theory of civilization lies in how to suppress the inherent tendencies toward barbarism through the cultivation of universal character.
Through this study, we can gain a deeper understanding of John Stuart Mill’s political thought while also responding to Jennifer Pitts’ interpretation of his work. |
