ЏОН СТЈУАРТ МИЛ, РАДНИЧКО ПИТАЊЕ И ПРОБЛЕМ СОЦИЈАЛИЗМА
JOHN STUART MILL, LABOUR ISSUE AND THE PROBLEM OF SOCIALISM

Summary/Abstract: The topic of this article is the analysis of Mill's attitude to socialism. The author starts from the contemporary libertarian dogma about Mill as the spoiler of liberalism who supposedly turned this ideology towards socialist trends. The detailed and taxonomic analysis based on Mill's Principles of Political Economy and Chapters on Socialism shows that this theory in not correct; that the opposite is true — Mill actually, as the first serious critic of socialism, set all the relevant arguments which the liberal theory would later use to challenge this rival ideology. The emphasis is placed on the problems of redistribution and extension of the right to vote, but the author also tackles the issues of corporations, protectionism and tax policy.
