We defined regulative and constitutive rules on Monday and elaborated today. Regulative rules not being able to be influenced or contrasted to constitutive which are influenes and created by society. Constitutive rules are hard to specity in a rigid way. That is, regulative rules are set in stone, and constitutive rules can be compared to a game of chicken in which the actors can influence the game. Or these can be described as brute facts, or social facts. The first being rules that are set before the states came into play, they cannot be influenced. Social facts refer to things that can be socially transformed, states decide the rules.
