Hedonism is a school of thought which argues that pleasure is the only intrinsic good. This is often used as a justification for evaluating actions in terms of how much pleasure and how little pain (i.e. suffering) they produce.
In very simple terms, a hedonist strives to maximize this net pleasure (pleasure minus pain).
