Books by Gregory (Royal Holloway Claeys

Giving prominence for the first time to Mill's abiding concern with Malthusianism and its impact on his key arguments respecting liberty, Mill and Paternalism explores Mill's strong commitment to population control, popular education, feminism and the leading role of intellectual elites, alongside his overarching interests in both liberty and equality.

Imperial Sceptics provides a highly original analysis of the emergence of opposition to the British Empire. Tracing critical strands of anti-imperial thought from 1850 to the First World War, Gregory Claeys proposes a new chronology for the contours of resistance to imperial expansion, shedding fresh light on nineteenth-century political thought.
