Egoism, utilitarianism, and altruism are all forms of consequentialism, but egoism and altruism contrast with utilitarianism, in that egoism and altruism are both agent-focused forms of consequentialism ( i. e. subject-focused or subjective ), but utilitarianism is called agent-neutral ( i. e. objective and impartial ) as it does not treat the subject's ( i. e. the self's, i. e. the moral " agent's ") own interests as being more or less important than the interests, desires, or well-being of others.
