- Franz Dietrich & Kai Spiekermann (2024): What are Social Norms?
While the importance of social norms for shaping and transforming communities is uncontested, their nature and normativity are controversial. ... Yet attitudes do not create norms, let alone social norms or social normativity. Social norms are instead made: through a social process. Social norming processes are special communication processes, often non-verbal and informal. We present different versions of a process-based account of social norms and social normativity.

Research shows that two factors are important for norm enforcement in homogeneous groups — the consequences of an individual's behavior for group members and the interdependence of those members. I extend existing theory to make predictions about norm enforcement in heterogeneous groups. ... The findings show that, in homogeneous groups, the two causal factors interact to affect both enforcement and compliance with social norms. In heterogeneous groups, they lead isolated minorities to enforce majority norms but not follow them, and they encourage majorities to follow norms but not enforce them.

We consider an expanded notion of social norms that render them belief-dependent and partial, formulate a series of related testable predictions, and design an experiment based on a variant of the dictator game that tests for empirical relevance. Main results: Normative beliefs influence generosity, as predicted.

La multiplication des normes et leurs conséquences sur le développement économique font désormais l'objet de débats universitaires et politiques. Si la simplification normative semble être le lietmotiv adopté lors de diverses revendications économiques et sociales, sa mise en oeuvre est loin d'être aussi aisée. Très souvent, la réponse à un problème normatif est apportée par la rédaction d'une nouvelle norme supposée régler le conflit...
RePEc:hal:journl:hal-01221311 Save to MyIDEAS - Bašic, Zvonimir & Eugenio Verrina (2020): Personal norms — and not only social norms — shape economic behavior
We propose a simple utility framework and design a novel two-part experiment to study the relevance of personal norms across various economic games and settings. We show that personal norms — together with social norms and monetary payoff — are highly predictive of individuals’ behavior. Moreover, they are: i) distinct from social norms across a series of economic contexts, ii) robust to an exogenous increase in the salience of social norms, and iii) complementary to social norms in predicting behavior. Our findings support personal norms as a key driver of economic behavior.

This article presents a theory of norm enforcement. Dominant accounts explain norms by referring to their consequences. On this view, norms are enforced when doing so increases the welfare of group members. ... Hypotheses are tested using unique data that include quantitative behavioral measures of norm and metanorm enforcement. ... Accordingly, understanding the role of social relations is essential for explaining norm enforcement.

The main goal of this paper is to introduce the notion of intuitionistic fuzzy normed rings and to establish basic properties related to it. We extend normed rings by incorporating the idea of intuitionistic fuzzy to normed rings, we develop a new structure of fuzzy rings which will be called an intuitionistic fuzzy normed ring. As an extension of intuitionistic fuzzy normed rings, we define the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy normed subrings and intuitionistic fuzzy normed ideals. ... Homomorphism and isomorphism of intuitionistic fuzzy normed subrings are characterized. ... Some properties of intuitionistic fuzzy normed rings and relevant examples are presented.

This chapter refines and formalizes the normative concepts of duty and obligation consistent with the ideas of institutional economics. To do so, deontic logic and normative system philosophy is utilized in order to formalize a methodology that enhances normative description, empirical investigation, and decision making. This formalization assumes the normative sets of social, technological, and ecological criteria as expressed in the social fabric matrix, and is grounded in the concepts of prohibition, obligation, and permission as emphasized by Karl Polanyi and John R. ... The deontic system necessary for a society to integrate authority and processing institutions to create and fulfill normative criteria through rules, regulations, and requirements is developed in a temporal setting. This explanation does not suggest that real-world normative systems are harmonious or continuous, or that they maintain commonality of normative criteria, avoid excess or inadequate redundancy, and are without gaps and conflict.
