Annotation: In what way are rules normative, and how do they differ from ordinary reasons? What makes normative systems systematic? What distinguishes legal systems, and in what consists their normativity? Joseph Raz answers these three questions by taking reasons as the basic normative concept, and
showing the distinctive role reasons have in every case, thus paving the way to a unified account of normativity.
