Bernard Williams Consequentialism and Integrity
In “Consequentialism and Integrity,” Bernard Williams discusses a case involving a

when he says that Act Utilitarianism entails a “strong doctrine of negative responsibility,”
and how does George’s case illustrate this point? What do you think George should do,
and why?
