The Possibility of Norms examines what defines social norms. Norms are not mere justifications or causal explanations of what we do, but point towards the possibility of divergent states of the world. Möllers's eye-opening analysis develops a new conceptual framework for social norms, from law and religion to the social and political sphere.
