Utilitarian Society

A utilitarian society is one that aims to promote the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people. This philosophical approach suggests that actions, policies, and laws should be evaluated based on their consequences and how much overall well-being they produce. In such a society, decisions are made with the goal of maximizing benefits and minimizing harm, prioritizing the welfare of the community. The idea comes from utilitarian philosophers like Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill, who believed that happiness and pleasure are the ultimate measures of a good society.
