According to John Stuart Mill, we only ever have the right to intervene in someone else’s life when...
(choose any/all that apply)
When they are causing harm to themselves |
When they are causing financial harm to someone else without their consent |
When they are causing psychological distress to those around them |
When they are causing physical harm to someone else without their consent |
‘All options are correct’.
In his essay, "A Few Words on Non-Intervention"(1889) philosopher J.S.Mill presented arguments in favour of British intervention in the Suez Canal crisis and the Crimean War. He presented British imperialism as a necessary and justified intervention in the countries which either posed a threat to the internal security of its and own people such as in civil war, or when they are causing harm- whether economic,psychological, physical, etc, upon other countries.
