Inspired by the renowned philosopher John Stuart Mill, who famously stated that power over individuals should only be exercised to prevent harm to others, "Law, Liberty, and Morality" examines how this principle has been challenged by two esteemed legal minds. Sir James Fitzjames Stephen and Lord Devlin present compelling arguments justifying the use of criminal law to enforce morality.
