Universal Prescriptivism




Hare would allow utilitarian considerations to enter into such a formulation, but he would not base the formula or his ethical theory solely on a principle of utility.

Hare believes that all of our ethical propositions ought to conform with logic.

Peter Singer has also expressed sympathy with Hare's position, though he is more strictly representative of the Utilitarian school.
