More about the book

John Stuart Mill's speech, delivered in the House of Commons in 1867, critiques the existing geographical constituency system of representation in Britain. He advocates for personal representation, allowing voters to select representatives based on individual merit rather than location. Mill highlights the advantages of this system, such as enhanced accountability and diversity in parliament, while addressing potential criticisms. The book also includes an appendix with insights on representation systems from various countries, making it a significant exploration of political philosophy and democracy.
