Sophisticated Consequentialism
Sophisticated Consequentialism is a normative ethical theory within consequentialist ethics that evaluates the moral rightness of actions based on their conformity to principles or rules whose general acceptance would produce the most favorable balance of good over evil, thereby distinguishing it from act-consequentialism by incorporating constraints and prohibitions derived from the long-term promotion of overall well-being.
