ABSTRACT
Almost all of this might equally well be said of Weber; yet it would be utterly misleading to suggest that they had much in common, either intellectually or methodologically or politically. Space prevents me from even attempting a task which ignorance would prevent my accomplishing; I shall not try to offer a blow-by-blow comparison of their views on every topic that they both touched on. I shall say something quite general about history, rationality, individuality and liberalism in Mill, leaving it to others better equipped than myself to bring out the extent of the contrast with Weber.
