John Stuart Mill / 穆勒
John Stuart Mill / 穆勒 appears in 100.法律的悖论:谢天谢地,幸好我们还有罗翔 as the liberal reference point for asking when law may restrict self-regarding conduct. The episode invokes his freedom principle to test drug use, self-harm, helmets, seatbelts, and the question of voluntary slavery.
The source stresses that even Mill’s liberalism contains a boundary: freedom cannot be used to erase one’s future freedom entirely. That makes him central to Liberalism-Paternalism Boundary rather than a simple anti-regulation slogan.
