| Omschrijving: | This paper analyses the concept of religion in John Stuart Mill as part of his Principles of Political Economy. According to Mill, it is not the dead of God what is to be expected or propitiated in a liberal society, for religion is not anchored in fear. Instead, the fundamental myth of liberalism would be the rise of a fellowshipof stress, where God requires the partnership of humans, for religion is anchored in desire to amend the creation and the eradication of evil. This perspective will be analyzed in relation with the tradition of Christian theological economy, in which, God’s gifts to mankind must be proliferated, and as prefiguration of the role of religion in the modern world imagined by Mill’s texts. Keywords: Religion. Liberalism. Energy. Performance. Mill. |
