Moral Belief on Utilitarianism toward Misused Approach to Moral Evaluation

Moral Belief on Utilitarianism toward Misused Approach to Moral Evaluation, di Edlira Gjuraj (Tukaj) e Tonin Gjuraj People are always interested in what we mean when we use ethical terms such as: right, wrong, good, bad, duty, obligation, and so on, and how ethical terms should be used. Obviously such a broad topic as ethics cannot be adequately covered by a single paper, so we shall have to narrow our focus. Our aim will be merely produce a general view of some of the most important issues of an ethical idea known as utilitarianism which according to it, our moral actions can be considered as such due to the consequences they produce. It is the object of our paper to show and argue how utilitarianism alongside other ethical theories can conduct our personal morality and actions. Utilitarianism provides us an appropriate way when people face moral dilemmas. However, nowadays, people are becoming more and more different from one to another, and more characterized. As a result, people may focus on considering themselves. This paper is trying to present some of the concerns of the principle of utilitarianism which result from its ambiguity, and the change of its content from classical utilitarianism up to a more modern version. Utilitarianism, far from being a self-serving approach to moral issues, demands careful, objective, impartial evaluation of consequences. It is a widely used – but often misused – approach to moral evaluation.
