John Stuart Mill analyzes the values and procedures of democracy and representative government in his work Considerations on Representative Government. Since it enables citizens to engage in politics by electing representatives, Mill claims that representational government is the ideal form of government. However, he criticizes the democratic systems that were in place at the time, especially the British system, contending that it is not genuinely representative and urging the expansion of the right to vote to all adult citizens. In addition, Mill highlights the interdependence between the person and the state as well as the significance of press and speech freedoms in a democratic society. He thinks that as long as no one is harmed, everyone should be allowed to pursue their interests and happiness and that the state's job is to defend such rights without needlessly interfering with people's daily lives. In conclusion, Considerations on Representative Government is a significant book of political philosophy that is still pertinent to current discussions of democracy and government.
