contractualism
On this view the idea of justifiability to others is taken to be basic in two ways. First, it is by thinking about what could be justified to others on grounds that they could not reasonably reject that we determine the shape of more specific moral notions such as murder or betrayal. Second, the idea that we have reason to avoid actions that could not be justified in this way accounts for the distinctive normative force of moral wrongness.
Sayfa 5 - The Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, Third printing, 2000
...moral wrongness is not a natural kind; but it is what might be called a normative kind.That is to say, the property of moral wrongness can be identified with a certain normatively significant property which is shared by actions that are wrong and which ac-counts for their observed normative features, such as the fact that we have reason to avoid such actions, to criticize those who perform them, and so on.
