Benthamite Utilitarianism

Benthamite Utilitarianism is a moral philosophy developed by Jeremy Bentham, which suggests that the best action is the one that maximizes overall happiness and minimizes suffering for the greatest number of people. It evaluates choices based on their outcomes, emphasizing that the right decision is the one that produces the most pleasure and least pain. This approach promotes actions that increase collective well-being, applying a rational and impartial calculation of pleasure versus pain to guide ethical decision-making.
