Correct Answer: Normative economics


Solution : The correct answer is Normative economics

Normative economics focuses on "what ought to be." It is built on perception. It makes no mention of facts and data. Usually, it communicates a value judgment. These statements express a viewpoint or a value assessment of what is or is not desirable. They have a prescriptive nature, are arbitrary, and frequently raise moral or ethical dilemmas. They are unfounded and devoid of supporting data. The words "ought" and "should" are frequently used in statements of this nature.
