Abstract: Normal maps between discrete groups $NightarrowG$ were characterized [FS] as those which induce a compatible topological group structure on the homotopy quotient $ENime{s}_{N}G$. Here we deal with topological group (or loop) maps $NightarrowG$ being normal in the same sense as above and hence forming a homotopical analogue to the inclusion of a topological normal subgroup in a reasonable way. We characterize these maps by a compatible simplicial loop space structure on $$, invariant under homotopy monoidal functors, e.g. Localizations and Completions. In the course of characterizing homotopy normality, we define a notion of a "homotopy action" similar to an $A_{infty}$ action on a space, but phrased in terms of Segal's 'special $Delta-$spaces' and seem to be of importance on its own right. As an application of the invariance of normal maps, we give a very short proof to a theorem of Dwyer and Farjoun namely that a localization by a suspended map of a principal fibration of connected spaces is again principal.
