General Theory of Norms
Hans Kelsen is considered by many to be one of the foremost legal thinkers of the twentieth century.He made important contributions to many areas, but especially to legal theory and international law.Over a number of decades, he developed an important legal theory which found its first complete exposition in Reine Rechtslehre, 1934 (presently being translated by Stanley Paulson for OUP) and its fullest expression in the second edition of Reine Rechtslehre, 1960.During the last decade of his life he was working on what he called a general theory of norms.When he died in 1973, he left a lengthy manuscript, which was published in 1979 as Allgemeine Theorie der Normen.This book is the translation - General Theory of Norms.It is thus the last work of one of the most important legal theorists this century.In it, Kelsen develops his `pure theory of law' into a `general theory of norms'.In so doing, he provides a new basis for some of the positions he espoused earlier on, but also revises some of his earlier positions.The most important new topic is that of the applicability of logic to norms: Kelsen develops an original and extreme position some people have called `normative irrationalism'. In the book, Kelsen also examines the views of over 200 philosophers and legal theorists on law, morality and logic, ranging from Plato and Aristotle to contemporary thinkers.

Norms in Human Development
The distinction between norms and facts is long-standing in providing a challenge for psychology.Norms exist as directives, commands, rules, customs and ideals, playing a constitutive role in human action and thought.Norms lay down 'what has to be' (the necessary, possible or impossible) and 'what has to be done' (the obligatory, the permitted or the forbidden) and so go beyond the 'is' of causality.During two millennia, norms made an essential contribution to accounts of the mind, yet the twentieth century witnessed an abrupt change in the science of psychology where norms were typically either excluded altogether or reduced to causes.The central argument in this book is twofold. Firstly, the approach in twentieth-century psychology is flawed.Secondly, norms operating interdependently with causes can be investigated empirically and theoretically in cognition, culture and morality.Human development is a norm-laden process.

The Grammar of Society : The Nature and Dynamics of Social Norms
In The Grammar of Society, first published in 2006, Cristina Bicchieri examines social norms, such as fairness, cooperation, and reciprocity, in an effort to understand their nature and dynamics, the expectations that they generate, and how they evolve and change.Drawing on several intellectual traditions and methods, including those of social psychology, experimental economics and evolutionary game theory, Bicchieri provides an integrated account of how social norms emerge, why and when we follow them, and the situations where we are most likely to focus on relevant norms.Examining the existence and survival of inefficient norms, she demonstrates how norms evolve in ways that depend upon the psychological dispositions of the individual and how such dispositions may impair social efficiency.By contrast, she also shows how certain psychological propensities may naturally lead individuals to evolve fairness norms that closely resemble those we follow in most modern societies.

The Obligation Mosaic : Race and Social Norms in US Political Participation
Many argue that “civic duty” explains why Americans engage in politics, but what does civic duty mean, and does it mean the same thing across communities?Why are people from marginalized social groups often more likely than their more privileged counterparts to participate in high-cost political activities? In The Obligation Mosaic, Allison P. Anoll shows that the obligations that bring people into the political world—or encourage them to stay away—vary systematically by race in the United States, with broad consequences for representation.Drawing on a rich mix of interviews, surveys, and experiments with Asian, Black, Latino, and White Americans, the book uncovers two common norms that centrally define concepts of obligation: honoring ancestors and helping those in need.Whether these norms lead different groups to politics depends on distinct racial histories and continued patterns of segregation. Anoll’s findings not only help to explain patterns of participation but also provide a window into opportunities for change, suggesting how activists and parties might better mobilize marginalized citizens.

Social Media : Communication, Sharing and Visibility
Social media platforms have captured the attention and imagination of many millions of people, enabling their users to develop and display their creativity, to empathize with others, and to find connection, communication and communion.But they are also surveillance systems through which those users become complicit in their own commercial exploitation.In this accessible book, Graham Meikle explores the tensions between these two aspects of social media.From Facebook and Twitter to Reddit and YouTube, Meikle examines social media as industries and as central sites for understanding the cultural politics of everyday life.Building on the new forms of communication and citizenship brought about by these platforms, he analyzes the meanings of sharing and privacy, internet memes, remix cultures and citizen journalism.Throughout, Social Media engages with questions of visibility, performance, platforms and users, and demonstrates how networked digital media are adopted and adapted in an environment built around the convergence of personal and public communication.
