The Repugnant Conclusion

#ethics #philosophy #utilitarianism

Discuss the theoretical paradox in population ethics known as the Repugnant Conclusion.

Define the Repugnant Conclusion as formulated by Derek Parfit: For any possible population of at least ten billion people, all with a very high quality of life, there must be some much larger imaginable population whose existence, if other things are equal, would be better. Analyze the theoretical conflict between total utility and average utility.
