For this purpose, the current study aim to revisit the debate conducted by the author in his book The Ego and his Own, in which the modern subjectivity is presented as a result of a process that started in the antique times and the rise of christianity, pointing to the appearance of a specific type of rationality and morality, constitutive parts of that subjectivity. Moreover, the discussion turns to the characteristics that education acquires in Liberalism, pointing to a better understanding of the liberal education as a process constructing subjectivities, in which the modern rationality and morality occupy a central role to internalize and naturalize domination and governance used nowadays. Finally, we discuss the possibilities presented by the author to construct other relationships socially and pedagogically, besides the ones of subordination that define education in current times. / Este trabalho visa problematizar, por meio de um estudo bibliográfico da obra do filósofo alemão Max Stirner, o paradigma moderno que envolve a educação, mais precisamente sobre as práticas de subjetivação que constituem esse paradigma e as possibilidades de singularização como resistência a esse processo. Para isso a pesquisa retoma, num primeiro momento, o debate feito pelo autor no livro O Único e a sua propriedade, em que a constituição da subjetividade moderna é apresentada como resultado de um processo que remete à antiguidade e a ascensão do cristianismo, apontando para o surgimento de um determinado tipo de racionalidade e de moralidade que emergem como parte constitutiva dessa subjetividade. Em seguida, a discussão se volta para as características que a educação toma na modernidade, sobretudo no liberalismo, apontando para um entendimento da educação liberal como um processo de fabricação de subjetividades em que a racionalidade e a moralidade modernas ocupam um papel central na tarefa de internalização e naturalização das práticas de dominação e de governo. Ao final são abordadas as possibilidades apresentadas pelo autor para outras relações no âmbito social e da pedagogia que não as de sujeição que definem a educação na modernidade.

Ele defende a espontaneidade, a individualidade, a diversidade e o pluralismo cultural e social como elementos básicos para o desenvolvimento pessoal do indivíduo e para o progresso social. Em base a princípios utilitaristas, ele afirma que há um limite para a interferência legítima da autoridade civil e da opinião pública na vida particular do indivíduo. Naquilo que diz respeito apenas a ele mesmo, o indivíduo é soberano e sua liberdade, absoluta. A sociedade e a autoridade civil não podem interferir no domínio particular do indivíduo salvo em caso de dano aos outros membros da sociedade. Essa postura leva muitos autores a enxergar nele um defensor da liberdade negativa apenas. No entanto, meu argumento é que há suficientes provas indutivas e textuais em Mill para considerá-lo também um defensor da liberdade positiva. __________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT / John Stuart Mill stands against moral conformism and political despotism. He defends spontaneity, individuality, diversity, and cultural pluralism as basic elements for personal development of the individual and for social progress. Based on utilitarian principles, he affirms that there is a limit to legitimate interference of civil authority and public opinion in the private life of the individual. The individual is sovereign and his liberty is absolute in what concerns him alone. Society and civil authority may not interfere in the private domain of the individual except in case of harm to other members of society. This position makes so many authors see in him a defender of negative liberty only. However, my argument is that there are sufficient inductive and textual proofs in Mill to consider him a defender of positive liberty as well.

Suas idéias são tomadas como as mais inspiradoras e aquelas que contribuíram decisivamente para a construção de um utilitarismo matizado, qualificado e mesmo inovador. Mill, ao contrário do que alegam seus detratores, possuía, desde sua crise mental, uma capacidade extraordinária para abrigar as mais diversas tendências filosóficas de seu tempo, o que motivou grande parte das críticas que lhe foram dirigidas. Duas destas críticas a que se reporta neste trabalho é aquela empreendida por Henry John McCloskey e Gertrud Himmelfarb, sendo que esta entende ser Mill um porta-voz das idéias de seu pai, James Mill e de sua esposa Harriet Taylor, e que por ter abrigado idéias tão díspares em seu pensamento, teria acabado por se tornar ambíguo e defensor de teses contraditórias. Mais do que refutar tal interpretação analisa-se, aqui, as perspectivas que mobilizaram Mill, particularmente nas duas obras que circunscrevemos como exigência para o tratamento das reflexões do filósofo britânico: On Liberty e Utilitarianism. Considera-se, aqui, que Mill possui uma coerência nos temas a que se refere constantemente, quais sejam, a preocupação com o ideário utilitarista e com sua defesa da liberdade civil e dos direitos entendidos como prima facie. Esta tese analisa, ainda, as principais contribuições dadas por Mill e defendidas em On Liberty. Tal defesa ressalta a preocupação com as noções de autonomia, auto-desenvolvimento e liberdade positiva, posicionando-se por uma leitura de Mill como um pensador que rechaça o paternalismo e declara sua mais controversa e ao mesmo tempo frágil intenção, a fundamentação do liberalismo sobre bases utilitaristas / Abstract: John Stuart Mill is considered in this work one of the most significant representatives of the utilitarianism. His ideas are taken as the most inspiring and those that had definitely contributed for the construction of a complex, qualified and even innovative utilitarianism. Mill, in contrast with what his detractors allege, possessed, since his mental crisis, an extraordinary capacity to shelter the most diverse philosophical trends of his time, what has motivated most of the critics against him. Two of the critics that he reports to in this work is the undertaken by Henry John McCloskey and Gertrud Himmelfarb, which seems to show Mill as the spokesman of the ideas of his father, James Mill, and of his wife Harriet Taylor, and for establishing such different ideas in his thought, he would end up becoming ambiguous and a defender of contradictory theses. More than refuting such interpretation it can be analyzed, here, the perspectives that had mobilized Mill, particularly in the two works that we circumscribe as requirement for treating the reflections of the British philosopher: On Liberty and Utilitarianism. It is considered, here, that Mill possesses a harmony in the subjects he constantly refers as, whatever they are, the concern with the utilitarian idealism and with his defense of the civil freedom and of the known as prima facie. This thesis analyzes, still, the main contributions provided by Mill and defended in On Liberty. Such defense enhances the concern with the notions of autonomy, self-development and positive liberty, locating itself for a reading of Mill as of a thinker who rejects paternalism and declares its most controversial and at the same time fragile intention, the establishment of liberalism over utilitarian basis / Doutorado / Filosofia Politica / Doutor em Filosofia

Recent history has abundantly justified J. S. Mlll's theory that the power of soclety over the indivldual is llkely to increase without limlt If lt was not prevented. One of the most obvlous phenomena of our times has been the rise of the so-called totalltarlan systems of government; states that treat the lndlvldual as a being wlth no other end but the servlce of the state and which are prepared to use the advanced technlques which modern scientific research has made available to them to mould the individual as the perfect tool of the system.

This thesis seeks to establish a significant commonality and compatibility between the principles underpinning the political and social philosophies of GWF Hegel and John Stuart Mill. The role of the individual and the social order in both their theories is discussed and assessed separately and in turn in reference to their respective seminal works on the proper structure, principles and function of modern political infrastructure. Through an interpretation of the fundamental tenets and goals of their theories of the social order I argue for a coherent modern reconstruction of their doctrines, within which I locate parallels and contrasts as they apply. Both theorists as ultimately put forward similar arguments for freedom as an intersubjectively·developed capacity, the ideal social order as rational framework for the management of ethical and political engagement, linked to a social holism that ties individual and social progress inextricably. A respect for individual particularity of perspective and practice is integral both of their social frameworks, but that such a space must be harmonised within a rational political community worthy of individual obligation. Finally their social and political theories can be understood as complementary, each providing insights which the other lacks. Mill suffers from an insufficient regard for the social basis of identity and interconnected nature of the modern institutional framework, while Hegel displays an insufficient regard for Mill's caveats concerning the repressive potential of institutional structures and the dangers of overly empowered bureaucracies. In conclusion key elements of the two theorists' projects stand as separate but not in any way fundamentally opposed to each other. This points to the possibility of a via media between a politics of individualism and a politics of community, suggesting strong potential for reconciliation between liberal and communitarian perspectives.

J.C. Chase was an 1820 settler who travelled to the Cape with Bailie's party. He was a man of some standing and education. There is evidence that he was a member of the Worshipful Company of Founders, whose arms were later adopted by Aliwal North, but he was reputedly a bookseller in London in 1819. Clearly the reading and writing of books were among his chief preoccupations at the Cape. He was particularly interested in travel and exploration and was one of the early white visitors to Griqualand. But his main objective at the Cape was probably to seek the security of a government appointment, and he held quite a succession of offices until he secured a permanent post in the administration. Even then he was moved from Graham's Town to Albert before he found his niche at Uitenhage, where he was Civil Commissioner and Resident Magistrate from 1849 to 1863. Intro., p.1.

Facultad de Filosofía y Humanidades / Tesis para optar al grado de Magíster en Filosofía mención Axiología y Filosofía Política / El presente trabajo, representa un estudio sobre la idea de opinión pública en la propuesta política de Mill bajo una mirada que gira en torno a sus alcances y aplicaciones en el sistema político liberal asociado al capitalismo. El objetivo central de esta propuesta, está fijado en la revisión del rol que el filósofo le da a la prensa, proponiéndola como instrumento político que permite la expresión del colectivo de opiniones. El carácter instrumental que toma la prensa viene a determinar que, a través de ésta, tenemos noticia de sucesos relevantes a la hora de tomar decisiones políticas en la actividad ciudadana por lo que, se transforma en la herramienta de sostenimiento del debate político. Sin embargo, quienes manejen los medios de comunicación de masa, manejan la distribución de una u otra opinión; por lo tanto, manejan la posibilidad del asumir una u otra preferencia ya sea potenciando una idea u omitiendo otra. Simultáneamente, se produce el detrimento de la división entre la esfera pública y la esfera privada generando una frontera nebulosa donde lo público es manejado desde lo privado con la creciente evaporación de espacios de deliberación y de acción intercomunicativa reemplazados por un espacio virtual. De esta manera, se verá como los medios de comunicación de masa se transforman en el lugar donde se aloja el poder y que incluso, podrían reconocerse como un mecanismo de control o aparato ideológico y, además, vienen a constituir el elemento de pérdida de la actividad de la polis.
