Nonconsequentialism [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Nonconsequentialism is a normative ethical theory which denies that the rightness or wrongness of our conduct is determined solely by the goodness or badness of the consequences of our acts or the rules to which those acts conform. It does not deny that consequences can be a factor in determining the rightness of an act. It does insist that even when the consequences of two acts or act types are the same, one might be wrong and the other right. This theory denies both act- and rule-consequentialism, understood as holding that the right act or system of rules is the one that maximizes good consequences as determined by an impartial calculation of goods and bads. This calculation requires that we have a theory of what is good; it may be extremely liberal, holding that killings are bad or that autonomy is good, but we are still required to maximize the good.
