In this work John Stuart Mill's classic text Considerations on Representative Government is framed as a treatise of a theorem for guiding "civilized" governors in imperially democratizing "non-civilized others" for the ends of historically moving humanity towards "civilizational progress." This theorem is broken down into an architecture which consists of the first four chapters of Considerations and a conceptual architecture consisting of three imperialism, democracy, and good governance. In outlining this theorem, gaps and shortcomings currently existing in the body of literature that engages Mill's relationship with imperialism are identified. The theorem and the secondary literature are also used to problematize and argue against the call by some authors for a turn to Mill's imperialism.
Timothy Smiths Credo lässt Eltern die Haare zu Berge stehen: „Bloß keine braven Kinder!“ Denn mal ehrlich: Was bringt es, wenn Sie „nette“ Kinder heranziehen, die zwar nach außen hin gut wirken und zu funktionieren scheinen, aber kein eigenes Profil haben, ihre Wertmaßstäbe an ständig wechselnden Trends ausrichten und beim ersten Gegenwind umfallen? Nein, unsere Welt braucht eine Generation, die „Salz und Licht“ ist – die starke innere Überzeugungen hat und mutig für diese eintritt. Doch wie erzieht man solche starken Kinder? Timothy Smith gibt Ihnen das nötige Handwerkszeug, um Ihren Kindern die 9 wichtigsten „Kernkompetenzen“ zu vermitteln, die sie brauchen, um in der Welt etwas zu bewegen: eine Vision entwickeln Authentizität Zuhören können Einfühlungsvermögen tätiges Mitgefühl Urteilsvermögen Grenzen setzen und akzeptieren Zufriedenheit leidenschaftliche Liebe
