(LaTeX) Abstract:
In this paper we introduce the DIagnostic and DEcision-theoretic framework for DEontic
reasoning diO(de)2. The framework diO(de)2 formalizes reasoning about violations and goals.
We use this framework to discuss two theories of normative reasoning, diagnosis theory and
(qualitative) decision theory. A crucial distinction between the two theories is their perspective
on time. Diagnosis theory reasons about incomplete knowledge and only considers the past. It
distinguishes between violations and non-violations. Qualitative decision theory reasons about
decision variables and considers the future. It distinguishes between fulfilled obligations and
unfulfilled obligations. Moreover, we discuss the relation between the two theories of normative
reasoning and deontic logic. The theories formalize reasoning with norms, and they are thus
different from deontic logic, that formalizes reasoning about norms.
