  • Résumé : In "The Subjection of Women," John Stuart Mill presents a compelling argument for gender equality, challenging the entrenched societal norms that subordinate women to men. Mill asserts that the legal and social subordination of women is inherently wrong and a significant barrier to human progress. He argues that the principle of perfect equality should replace the existing system, which grants power and privilege to men while imposing disabilities on women. Mill highlights the difficulty of challenging deeply rooted societal opinions, noting that feelings often outweigh reason in maintaining the status quo. He critiques the historical reliance on the "law of the strongest" and emphasizes that the subjugation of women is a relic of a bygone era, inconsistent with modern principles of freedom and equality. Mill calls for a genuine discussion on the merits of gender equality, free from the biases of custom and tradition. He contends that the differences between the sexes are largely artificial, shaped by societal influences rather than inherent nature. Mill advocates for the removal of legal and social barriers that prevent women from pursuing opportunities on equal terms with men, arguing that such change is essential for the advancement of society as a whole.
  • Biographie : John Stuart Mill was born at 13 Rodney Street in Pentonville, then on the edge of the capital and now in central London, the eldest son of Harriet Barrow and the Scottish philosopher, historian, and economist James Mill. John Stuart was educated by his father, with the advice and assistance of Jeremy Bentham and Francis Place. He was given an extremely rigorous upbringing, and was deliberately shielded from association with children his own age other than his siblings. His father, a follower of Bentham and an adherent of associationism, had as his explicit aim to create a genius intellect that would carry on the cause of utilitarianism and its implementation after he and Bentham had died.
