Abstract

Este artículo argumenta cómo la libertad es para Mill no sólo un instrumento para el progreso social y cultural, sino también una condición necesaria para lograr la felicidad humana y uno de sus componentes. Lo que a su vez nos lleva a estudiar su concepto de felicidad (como algo distinto de la mera satisfacción) en íntima relación con la conquista de la igualdad en derechos de las mujeres, pues solo en esa situación pueden desarrollarse plenamente los sentimientos morales.

Alternate abstract:

This article argues that, for Mill, liberty is not merely a means to social and cultural progress, but also a necessary condition for human happiness and one of its components. This premise, in turn, leads us to an examination of his concept of happiness (as something distinct from mere satisfaction) in close relation to the attainment of equal rights for women, since it is only in this situation that moral sentiments can fully develop themselves.
