Abstract. In the current case study, I examine a key feature of the political thinking of István Gorove (1818–1881), one of the well-known and respected politicians and political thinkers of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy.Aspects of the common good in Gorove’s political thought cover a broad scope of social phenomena, among which the current study will focus on the analysis of the British society and political culture together with its implications on the common good of Gorove’s own Hungarian political community, based on Gorove’s two-volume book Nyugot: Utazás külföldön [West: A Journey Abroad].

Keywords: common good, the political, Kingdom of Hungary, Great Britain, classical liberalism
