On the other hand, feelings of sympathy and favor, the basis of the social centripetal of individuals, according to Bentham, formed from the citizens of his radical democracy not two groups that differed from each other - = rulers and the ruled *), but citizens - collaborators in his radical democracy. As for Mill, he would willingly subscribe to Kant’s qualification of the individual. In addition, developing Bentham’s principles just mentioned, Mill believed that the dignity of the human personality, which we talked about above, encourages people to treat other individuals not as slaves, but, according to Bentham, as equal individuals who are collaborators in social life. What Kant said about duty, which gave the individual moral stability, is that V. Humbolt gave his teleolome as the cause—the individual’s passion—i.e. e. developed and perfection, under the conditions of possible complete freedom, - Mill is perceived in his moral and socially-political philosophy, emphasizing Kantian transcendentalism and Humboldtian idealism with his inductions 2). The trend of the English school is clear; while preserving individualism, obscure the metaphysics of natural law with law as a necessary condition for the life and development of the individual, explained from the properties of physics and the human psyche. And this right is also the degree of freedom belonging to the individual, required by the individuality of the person. But this freedom is not an innate metaphysical property of ‘personally sti, but the external condition of its existence, dependent however on nature

(M. 1899). er. 692. note: “regarding moral feelings, through direct experiment, historical experience largely takes over, and we can, with a fairly significant approach to certainty, trace the associations through which these feelings arise. An attempt at such an investigation, as far as the sense of justice is concerned, is represented by my small work, entitled ONINi“iizt.”

The basic properties of the moral individual are also applied by Mill to the explanation of the political individual. He rejects the main basis of the political-individualist concept of the 18th century, the idea of contract, as an arbitrary rationalistic hypothesis. Moreover, the starting point of the social-political theory is the powerful, progressive natural feeling of sociability in an individual "). This feeling have enormous significance for the supreme utilitarian principle. A sense of sociability entails recognition of the equality of individual interests. An individual not only gets used to respecting the interests and personality of another, but gets used to associating and identifying individual interests with the good of society °). No less than Mill categorically demands from society that the individual in all activities affecting him be given complete individual freedom. The principles of Humboldt's theory 3) are accepted entirely by the English utilitarian, who calls Humboldt his only and immediate predecessor. This reference is extremely characteristic for us in the sense that, adopting the spirit and principles of W. Humboldt, Mill gives them a completely different justification and the genesis of individuality, freedom, equality and development to seek empirically, and not

In his autograph, Mill mentions the works of William McCalle “The Basis of Individualism” and the individualistic system of the American writer Warren, whose expression “the dominion of the individual” Mill adopted in his treatise “Op Ifegbu”.
