The aim of this paper is to introduce a system of dynamic deontic logic in which the main problems related to the denition of deontic concepts, especially those emerging from a standard analysis of permission in terms of possibility of doing an action without incurring in a violation of the law, are solved. The basic idea is to introduce two crucial distinctions allowing us to dierentiate (i) what is ideal with respect to a given code, which xes the types of action that are abstractly prescribed, and what is ideal with respect to the specic situation in which the agent acts, and (ii) the transitions associated with actions and the results of actions, which can obtain even without the action being performed.

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to introduce a system of dynamic deontic logic in which the main problems related to the denition of deontic concepts, especially those emerging from a standard analysis of permission in terms of possibility of doing an action without incurring in a violation of the law, are solved. The basic idea is to introduce two crucial distinctions allowing us to dierentiate (i) what is ideal with respect to a given code, which xes the types of action that are abstractly prescribed, and what is ideal with respect to the specic situation in which the agent acts, and (ii) the transitions associated with actions and the results of actions, which can obtain even without the action being performed.
