Abstract. What are the theoretically possible ways for people to live socially? What coherent moralities and what social arrangements are available? Applying the hypothetico-deductive approach of the natural sciences to value preferences reveals the inherent structure of social relations, resolving social science’s biggest question: the connection between the individual and society.
Way of life theory (WOLT) finds four moralities connected via three “dimensions” which contain all matters which need to be regulated in order to live socially. WOLT relates every rational, social value to every other rational, social value in a strict, falsifiable theory. Only conventional scientific procedures of hypothesis, deduction, logic, and idealisation are employed.
