Codification Proposal
Rationale
No wonder that a Code what Code has been so abundant with accompaniments of this description
stands hitherto have been equally so abundant. Without a separate
Codification, his making to the is the course of all tasks: with a
the most difficult.
Rationale
Without : any With acting other wages and is
Taken by itself, not only every act by which punishment is inflicted, but Every act by which power is exercised by compulsory means
power by any one man exercised over any other, is an
evil. For the act by which this evil is produced To constitute a perfect warrant for the act by
which this evil is produced two things are must be necessary:
points of probability must be sufficiently established:
to show that the good according to proba that by the evil thus produced preponderant good
good to a preponderant amount will be produced; and
that at a less expence in the shape article of evil the
good in question could not by the means in question
or any other means have been produced. In the
framing of the rationale, both these points objects will be constantly
kept in view.
On the In speaking of On the occasion of a law or body of law expressions
such as god of approbation and disapprobation – such
as good and bad, beneficial and promiscuous, will be are seen
continually presenting themselves. Till some standard is
fixt, approbation and or disapprobation on the part of the reader
him who thus speaks of them – the state of his
mind in relation to the object objects in question, not any
quality in the objects themselves, this and nothing
more will be the thing really designated: this and nothing
more, with whatsoever greater weight whose words the words
are may wish to see them operate. When the rationale in question
with this maxim for its ground has been established theimport
of these same expressions considered as indicative of qualities
belonging to the states of things, acts or other words spoken of will
now for the first law,
now and for ever hence
formed by fixt.
