On Consequentialism - A brief and critical analysis of the established arguments for and against (Paperback)

Essay from the year 2012 in the subject Philosophy - Philosophy of the Present, grade: -, -, course: EPQ, language: English, comment: This essay represents the culmination of a project examining the most esteemed moral perspectives and their determinants. This is, however, only a brief essay (due to word limitations) and is no great attempt to expound any moral/philosophical theory. Despite these limitations, I feel that this essay has effectively dealt with the question set within the boundaries imposed upon it., abstract: There is, in modern society, a general trend of antipathy regarding morality, leading to an acceptance of unconsidered egocentric utilitarianism. This essay sets out to combat blind consequentialism in its most esteemed form, in favour of a considered approach, regardless of perspective. The outcome is a brief analysis of the concepts and arguments in one of the most prominent debates in ethics, providing a concise evaluation of the key tenets of both sides.
