Value-Based Reasoning and Norms

In this paper we explore how value-based practical reasoning relates to norms and their evolution. Starting from a basic model of a society and the norms that can arise from it, we consider how additional values, extended state descriptions and finer grained descriptions of actions, can lead to more complex norms, and a correspondingly more complex social order.
