Abstract:The British utilitarianism represented by Jeremy Bentham has a reductionist orientation. John Stuart Mill accepted the British Romantic literature and continental philosophy. He overcame the tendency of the analytical methods and determinism of utilitarianism and stressed the cultivation of the human heart and free will. His basis on human nature is the ability of free choice and experiment. He developed the Individuality, which is different from Jeremy Bentham's utilitarianism, as the basis of his theory of liberalism and had a profound impact.
