The doctrine of utilitarianism saw the maximization of utility as a moral criterion for the organization of society. According to utilitarians, such as Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832 AD) and John Stuart Mill (1806-1876 AD), society should aim to maximize the total utility of individuals, aiming for "the greatest happiness for the greatest number".
