As a trope, Ethical Hedonism is known as For Happiness.

  • Moral philosophy takes two basic forms. One is morality that judges actions based on what consequences they have. This is known as teleology or consequentialism, and the most common form of consequentialism is Utilitarianism or Ethical Hedonism: The belief that the greatest good is to create as much happiness as possible for as many people as possible.

Darker forms of utilitarianism are expressed by tropes such as Well-Intentioned Extremist, Totalitarian Utilitarian and Utopia Justifies the Means. The other basic form is morality that judges actions based on the principles behind the actions. This is known as Deontology, and the most common form of Deontology is The Golden Rule. Darker forms of deontology are expressed by tropes such as Principles Zealot. One could say that Ethical Hedonism is Chaotic Good while Deontology is Lawful Good.
