German Institute for Normative Theory

The German Institute for Normative Theory is a research organization focused on understanding and analyzing principles that guide ethical and societal standards. It studies how normative concepts—ideas about what is right or wrong, just or unjust—shape laws, policies, and human behavior. The institute aims to develop clear, coherent frameworks to address moral questions and improve societal decision-making. By combining philosophical, social, and political insights, it contributes to discussions on justice, responsibility, and norms that influence everyday life and institutional practices.
