Examples of normative in a Sentence

1. Kristie Poole:

2. Martha Nussbaum:

   The most fertile idea of the Stoics, in my view, is their analysis of emotions as containing evaluative thoughts about what is most important for one’s well-being.

Their normative analysis of the emotions seems wrong to me, namely that we should get rid of them all, but they are pretty on target in their critique of anger.

3. Vicki Rox:

   Part of why I feel so passionately about this is because I want this to become normative.

4. Dave Nussbaum:
