In November 2007, four new leaflets were produced by the Bentham Project with the support of UCL Futures.  These leaflets were reproduced and reprinted in 2010 with the assistance of UCL Corporate Communications. The leaflets may be downloaded in PDF format below.

• Bentham on Democracy: every individual in the country tells for one; no individual for more than one.
• Bentham on Education: the common end of every person's education is happiness.
• Bentham on the Panopticon: the more strictly we are watched the better we behave.
• Bentham on religion: religion is an engine, invented by corruptionists, at the command of tyrants, for the manufactory of dupes.

The Bentham Project also produced three leaflets on aspects of Bentham's life and thought in 2006 (reproduced in 2010):

• Bentham's life, legacy, writings and the work of the Bentham Project: the greatest happiness of the greatest number.
• Bentham on equality: all inequality is a source of evil.
• The Bentham Walk: explore Bentham's London
