    normative

    Explanation:

    A crime which is against or violates the cultural standards or the prevailing norms can be termed as the normative definition of crime. In other words, crime which is offends a set of norms such as moral codes is called as the normative crime.

    Thus prostitution can be considered as a normative crime in some places where it is against the moral characteristics of the society. Whereas in some places, prostitution is acceptable.

    Thus this explains why prostitution is legal in Nevada while it is illegal in Clark County.
