Episode Synopsis "Talking Utilitarianism "
This episode we explain Bentham’s Act Utilitarianism, Mill’s Rule Utilitarianism, and Singer’s Preference Utilitarianism. This moral theory has in part shaped our political morality in Britain... although some tory party members might need to flip through their ethics textbooks again (or listen to this episode!)
