Abstract
This work focuses on analyzing how normative rationality (and normative life as a whole) interacts with human social activities. It begins by dressing a picture of what it means by normative rationality (following Allan Gibbard), then analyzing classical decision theory problems (as accounts of instrumental normative rationality), and finishes by applying the previous conclusions on science as a human social activity influenced (at least partially) by the normative life of its agents.
