8.7 The Cluelessness Objection
Update: 2023-07-11
Description
Is utilitarianism undermined by our inability to predict the long-term consequences of our actions? This article explores whether utilitarians can still be guided by near-term expected value even when this is small in comparison to the potential value or disvalue of the unknown long-term consequences.
The original text contained 18 footnotes which were omitted from this narration.
