Question

Urgent ,,, What are the strengths and weaknesses of consequentialism generally?

Answer 1

Answer:

Consequentialism can struggle to compare different moral values. The other concern people express is the tendency of consequentialism to use 'ends justify the means' logic. If all we are concerned with is getting good outcomes, this can seem to justify harming some people in order to benefit others

Explanation:

So a strength of consequentialism is that it provides a rational basis for determining whether an act is ethical within this framework; but a weakness is that it can result in injustices to individuals. The ends do not always justify the means.
