Norms are not only moral rules but also encompass other types of rules such as customs, traditions, and laws. Furthermore, norms are subjective in nature as they differ based on the social and cultural context in which they exist. Norms can range from relatively minor expectations called folkways to more significant rules called mores and even to formal laws that are enforced by the government.
