Mill's Higher Pleasures and the Choice of Character*: Roderick T. Long
Utilitas 4 (2):279-297 (1992)
Abstract
J. S. Mill's distinction between higher and lower pleasures is often thought to conflict with his commitment to psychological and ethical hedonism: if the superiority of higher pleasures is quantitative, then the higher/lower distinction is superfluous and Mill contradicts himself; if the superiority of higher pleasures is not quantitative, then Mill's hedonism is compromised.Author's Profile
