This work is to clear and review the utilitarianism according to the thought of philosophers Jeremy Bentham, Stuart Mill and John Rawls. In pursuing this goal, we seek to scrutinize about what it is utilitarianism, and how their applicability. Prior to properly analyze these authors and their respective positions on utilitarianism, will be passed on a brief historical context, in order to understand all the sources that converge in this theory. We note throughout the work, each author will present a unique take on the subject, but with some converging points. Among these points, it will be attempted to explain the happiness of views, which make up one of the fundamental points of the utilitarian theory. Finally, the vision will be analyzed presented on utilitarianism, and its applicability in law, aiming to guarantee the effectiveness of law with utilitarian bases
