Marketing - Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc. / informe de encuentros
Spanish term or phrase: apelativo al "deber ser"
Este texto se encuentra en un informe realizado como consecuencia de un encuentro de organizaciones y fundaciones.
*En términos generales, en este campo las experiencias más exitosas, y que se nombraron con mayor frecuencia, están vinculadas a:
• La construcción de alianzas y redes;
• La generación de espacios de confianza y de intercambio entre pares;
• El aprovechamiento de estructuras empresariales preexistentes;
• La focalización de esfuerzos. La dispersión de tiempos y recursos atenta contra el logro de los objetivos;
Las menos exitosas tienen que ver con:
• Los intentos de “evangelizar” y “concientizar”: “…las empresas no son permeables a ese tipo de discursos…”;
• Los ****apelativos al “deber ser”;****

Muchas gracias...

apelativo al "deber ser"
resorting to duties


Explanation:
¡Ah, la buena RAE!

apelativo, va.
(Del lat. appellatīvus).
1. adj. Que apellida o califica. U. t. c. s.
2. adj. Ling. Se dice de las expresiones lingüísticas, textos, etc., que pretenden influir en el receptor.
3. m. nombre apelativo.
4. m. apellido (ǁ nombre de familia).

Me parece que lo más adecuado es traducir como 'to resort' en este caso, dado que las normas sociales son una institución.
