What is Understanding Consequentialist Ethics about?
Consequentialist ethics evaluates the morality of actions based on their outcomes, deeming actions morally right if they lead to good consequences. A prominent form of consequentialism is Utilitarianism, which advocates for actions that maximize happiness for the greatest number of people, as articulated by Jeremy Bentham and J. S. Mill. This ethical framework suggests that even actions typically viewed as wrong, like lying, can be justified if they result in a positive outcome, such as saving a life.
