This expanded edition of John Stuart Mill’s Utilitarianism includes the text of his
1868 speech to the British House of Commons defending the use of capital
punishment in cases of aggravated murder. The speech is significant both because
its topic remains timely and because its arguments illustrate the applicability of
the principle of utility to questions of large-scale social policy.
