Option 2 : 2 and 4 only 

The correct answer is option 2, i.e 2 and 4.

Utilitarianism

  • Utilitarianism holds that proper course of action is the one that maximizes utility such as maximizing happiness and reducing suffering.
  • This theory was first put forward by Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill. Hence statement 2 is correct.
  • Jeremy Bentham argued that people should judge ideas, institutions, and actions on the basis of their utility, or usefulness. 
  • Jeremy Bentham also argued that the government should try to promote the greatest good for the greatest number of people. Hence statement 4 is correct.
  • Utilitarianism relies upon some theory of Intrinsic value i.e.something is held to be good in itself, apart from further consequences, and all other values are believed to derive their worth from their relation to this intrinsic good as a means to an end. Hence statement 1 is incorrect.
  • The Indian Penal Code which was first drafted by Lord Thomas Macaulay was inspired by the utilitarian beliefs of both Macaulay as well as the Governor-General, Lord Bentinck. Hence statement 3 is incorrect.
