Normative ethics
Normative ethics is a branch of philosophical ethics concerned with classifying actions as right and wrong.Normative ethics attempts to develop a set of rules governing human conduct, or a set of norms for action. It deals with what people should believe to be right and wrong, as distinct from descriptive ethics, which deals with what people do believe to be right and wrong. Hence, normative ethics is sometimes said to be prescriptive, rather than descriptive.
