{"product_id":"9781441178695","title":"Utilitarian Philosophy and Politics: Bentham's Later Years","description":"Exploring the life, work and ideas of the great 19th century utilitarian philosopher Jeremy Bentham, this study takes a unique look at his intellectual project from the point of view of the development of his political thought and later reassessment of his own ideas. Placing Bentham's work in its historical and intellectual context, \u003cem\u003eUtilitarian Philosophy and Politics\u003c\/em\u003e considers in particular Bentham's utilitarianism in relation to his later engagement with political and constitutional reform. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJames Crimmins argues that, despite being one of the most argued over philosophers of the 19th century, Bentham remains one of the most misunderstood of political philosophers. By attempting to look again at the context in which Bentham was writing and his self-conscious concern with his own legacy, this book offers a new account of this major political thinker.","brand":"Bloomsbury USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47140158374128,"sku":"9781441178695","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781441178695_p0.jpg?v=1763795379","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781441178695","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
