In utilitarian ethics, “actions per se are not moral or immoral” (Pratt, 1993, p. 228). Instead, morality is dependent on the effects of publics. While resolving ethical issues according to their consequences on people, utilitarianism can be categorized into two basic forms. The first form, act utilitarianism, provides the most good for the greatest number. It justifies the morality of an action or crisis by its relevance to utility. The second form, rule utilitarianism, asks the question: when followed, what rule or moral principle will maximize the good (Pratt, 1993).
