Who propounded the theory of Pain and Pleasure ?
Jeremy Bentham
Jeremy Bentham, the founder of classical utilitarianism, built his theory of law and morals on pain and pleasure.
In An Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation (1789) he wrote that nature has placed mankind under the governance of two sovereign masters, pain and pleasure, and that the test of every law is whether it promotes the greatest happiness of the greatest number.
Austin developed the command theory of law, Kant grounded morality in duty and the categorical imperative rather than pleasure, and Finnis is a modern natural law theorist of basic goods.
Hence, Jeremy Bentham.
