Utilitarianism argues that morality gets determined by examining the “degree of happiness an act will bring to the world” (Shafer-Landau, 2015, p. 147). Based on utilitarianism, our right moral actions are the ones that minimize the overall worse or maximize the overall best (Boase & Humphreys, 2018).

Thomas Hardy The Darkling Thrush The Darkling Thrush was composed and published by Thomas Hardy at the age 60 it was a time he was reflecting on his philosophical beliefs as a Christian. He had lost hope, but in Christianity, however, his staunch Christian background still affected his poetry. “An aged thrush, frail, gaunt, and small, In blast-beruffled plume,” In this words, it is evident that his age had brought about some disenfranchised feeling of his religion. In the beginning of the twentieth century throughout England, pessimistic emotions were prevalent among its citizens. However, I like the way he ends the poem with a hopeful tone. In his words he says” His happy good-night air, Some blessed Hope, whereof he knew And I was unaware.” Although he was also pessimistic about the future, there was a flair of optimism which he knew not but was confident that it existed.

The purpose of capital control is to limit volatility caused by capital flows (Edison & Warnock, 2008). For example, foreign capital is very volatile, such as short-term bank deposits or foreign investments in local stocks, etc. Treated as unstable. They vary greatly and enter and exit quickly.
