The principle of Utility states that an action then may be said to be conformable to the principle of utility, or, for shortness sake, to utility, (meaning with respect to the community at large) when the tendency it has to augment the happiness of the community is greater than any it has to diminish it.
The idea that "it is the greatest happiness of the greatest number that is the measure of right and evil" is what Bentham referred to as the "basic premise" of his philosophy. He rose to prominence as a key figure in Anglo-American philosophy of law and as a political radical whose ideas helped shape welfarism. He supported freedoms of the individual and the economy, the division of religion and state, freedom of speech, the equality of women, the right to divorce.
