| 520 | _aThe majority of contemporary political philosophy is based on three assumptions, that (1) interests of present people can be reconciled under “favourable conditions” (Rawls), (2) things will go better for the next generation and (3) favourable conditions will continue indefinitely. But what if they don’t? The paper is exploring the hypothesis of a “broken world” where there is no hope to establish liberal institutions that can both meet basic needs and protect basic liberties. It argues that Mill’s liberal utilitarianism is suited to a broken world because of its flexibility and of its reliance on an objective list of essential components of a flourishing human life that can be shared by present and future generations. | ||
