Elster on Social Norms

veryard projects > people > elster > social norms

In the Cement of Society, Jon Elster has some useful material on the relationship between individual rationality and social norms. He argues that social norms are not outcome-oriented. (I think his notion of social norms includes compliance with ethical/moral codes.)

Compliance
Corruption - Bribery or Seduction
