philosophical radicals
Definition(s)
- The philosophical radicals were of group of politicians, philosophers, journalists, and writers who campaigned for British parliamentary reform during the period of 1817 to 1841, and who were associated with the Westminster Review, a quarterly journal founded by Jeremy Bentham (1748–1832) and James Mill (1773–1836). The group was a loose coalition with no definitive membership list, but it certainly included James Mill, John Stuart Mill (1806–1873), George Grote (1794–1871), John Cam Hobhouse (1786–1869), John Arthur Roebuck (1802–1879), Francis Place (1771–1854), Joseph Parkes (1796–1865), and Sir William Molesworth (1810–1855), among others.
