Abstract

In this present article it deals with the Bentham theory of Utilitarianism. The thrust of Bentham Utilitarianism was on relieving pain and providing security, on insisting that the pleasures of all individuals deserved equal respect and consideration, and that they should not be interfered with unless they resulted in the interference in the pleasure of other1. It was true that he did not delve into the spiritual or intellectual dimensions of the individualism.
