What is Bentham about?

Bentham developed the theory of act utilitarianism, which argues that an action is morally right if it results in the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people. He defined happiness as pleasure and the absence of pain. Utilitarianism evaluates the consequences of actions and determines morality based on which actions produce the most benefit. Bentham believed individuals are motivated by pleasure and pain, and that the ethical theory should maximize pleasure for all.
