    also Norm philosophy Phronetic social science Ethics Category Ethics Category Normative ethics Category ...unreferenced date August 2009 Normative ethics is the branch of Philosophy philosophical ethics that investigates the set of questions that arise when we think about the question how ought one act, morally speaking? Normative ethics is distinct from meta ethics because it examines standards for the rightness and wrongness of actions, while meta ethics studies the meaning of moral language and the metaphysics of moral facts. Normative ethics is also distinct from descriptive ethics , as the latter is an empirical investigation of people s moral beliefs. To put it another way, descriptive ethics would be concerned with determining what proportion of people believe that killing is always wrong, while normative ethics is concerned with whether it is correct to hold such a belief. Hence, normative ethics is sometimes said to be prescriptive, rather than descriptive. However, on certain versions of the meta ethical view called moral realism , moral facts are both descriptive and prescriptive at the same time. Broadly speaking, normative ethics can be divided into the sub disciplines of moral theory and applied ethics .

Normative calculations are used to produce an idealised mineralogy of a crystallized melt. First, a rock is chemically analysed to determine the elemental constituents.

  1. Normative model of culture

    Mergefrom Model culture date March 2010 The normative model of culture is the central model in Cultural history archaeology culture history , a theoretical approach to cultures in archaeology , anthropology and history . In essence it defines culture as a set of shared ideas, or norms. ref name JM rp 65 The normative model was the dominant model in archaeological theory up to the rise of processual archaeology . Many argue that current views of culture history are simplified and attack a straw man . ref name JM rp 15 16 Basic assumptions The normative model of culture assumes that a culture consists of a set of norms. These norms are ideas on all aspects of a society. It then goes on to assume that the norms are expressed in material remains of a society. ref name JM rp 16 A simple example of this is the norm that human remains should be buried on a cemetery outside the settlement. This norm is expressed in the material record, and can be discovered by archaeologists who excavate a field of burials outside a settlement of the same period. As a consequence of the assumption that cultural norms were expressed in material remains, the normative model equates an archaeological culture with a human culture. It must be noted that by no means all traits are required to be similar for a site to be considered part of a certain culture. A site can lack a typical form of architecture, yet present numerous other characteristic traits for example typical pottery, burials, orientation . Criticism The normative model is often criticized as being mainly descriptive. ref name JM rp 19 It does not explain why a certain cultural norm exists, but rather describes that it exists. The normative model fitted well with an archaeology which was largely concerned with simply collecting data. Criticism focussed mainly on the model s lacking abilities to explain rather than describe, to generalize rather than particularize and to understand change in societies. ref name JM rp 17 28 References reflist ...   more details

  1. Normative principle of worship

    unreferenced date November 2009 The normative principle of worship is a Christian theology theological principle that teaches that Christian worship worship in the Church can include those elements that are not prohibited by Scripture . The most common traditions using this are Anglican and Lutheran . The opposing view is the regulative principle of worship which teaches that with regard to worship whatever is commanded in The Bible Scripture by command, precept or example, or which can be deduced by good and necessary consequence from Scripture is required, and that whatever is not commanded or cannot be deduced by good and necessary consequence from the Scripture is prohibited . This is most often seen in many Presbyterianism Presbyterian and Reformed Christianity Reformed churches. A supposedly new principle has been recently introduced into this discussion that seeks to strike a balance between the regulative and normative principles. Sometimes referred to as the informed principle of worship , it teaches that what is commanded in Scripture regarding worship is required, what is prohibited in Scripture regarding worship is forbidden, what is not prohibited in Scripture regarding worship is permissible, but only if validity validly deduced from a proper application of Scripture using good and necessary consequence. However, the attempt to promote the informed principle of worship is self evidently mistaken for a very simple reason the Regulative Principle of Worship already teaches and insists on the regulative and morally binding role of good and necessary consequence. One of the most explicit assertions of this authoritative and morally binding use of good and necessary consequence is readily found in probably the most famous of Protestant Confessions of faith, the Westminster Confession of Faith 1646 , Chapter 1, sec. 6, as well as in many others, including the Heidelberg Catechism , the Belgic Confession , and the London Baptist Confession 1677 1689 .

  1. Science in science fiction

    Science in science fiction is the study of how science is portrayed in works of science fiction. It covers a large range of topics, since science takes on many roles in science fiction. Hard science fiction is based on engineering or the hard sciences for example, physics, astronomy, or chemistry , whereas soft science fiction is based on the soft sciences, and especially the social sciences anthropology, sociology, psychology, political science, and so on . Likewise, the accuracy of the science portrayed spans a wide range sometimes it is an extrapolation of existing technology, sometimes it is a physically realistic portrayal of a far out technology, and sometimes it is simply a plot device that looks scientific, but has no basis in science.
