Concept information

Preferred term

normative economics  

Definition(s)

  • Normative economics concerns itself with what ought to be in a society, and so is always grounded in value judgments. Individuals who do not share the value judgments, explicit or implicit, that govern a particular normative approach will not necessarily endorse the policy recommendations of that approach. [Source: Encyclopedia of Law & Society: American and Global Perspectives; Normative Economics]
