When you need to make ethical decisions, do you base them on utilitarian philosophies or on ethics of principles and rights?
Answer:
Utilitarianism is one of the most common approaches to making ethical decisions, especially decisions with consequences that concern large groups of people, in part because it instructs us to weigh the different amounts of good and bad that will be produced by our action.
