| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We analyzed Bentham's theory of international order and the characteristics of Utilitarianism underlying it by investigating his ideas on American Constitution, International Law, Human Dignity, and Convention. We also compared his ideas with those of David Hume, Montesquieu, and Immanuel Kant. We organized an international conference on Bentham, inviting scholar from France, and we published some articles.
