Procedural group identification
Dimitrov, Dinko; Sung, Shao Chin; Xu, Yongsheng - Institut für Mathematische Wirtschaftsforschung, … - 2006
In this paper we axiomatically characterize two recursive procedures for defining a social group. The first procedure … of the second procedure is the set of all individuals who define themselves as members of the social group. Both …

Minimal Liberties, Maximal State and the Market : The Case for a Coasian Liberal
Nicita, Antonio - 2003
The paper compares the Sen's paradox on the Paretian liberal (1970) and the standard version of the Coase theorem (1960). The comparison of the two theorems is somehow puzzling: If we accept Sen then we have to forget Coase and vice-versa. Following the analysis of Hillinger and Lapham (1971),...

Procedurally fair provision of public projects: An axiomatic characterization
Güth, Werner; Kliemt, Hartmut - 2011
Unanimous voting as the fundamental procedural source of political legitimacy grants veto power to each individual. We present an axiomatic characterization of a class of bidding processes to spell out the underlying egalitarian values for collective projects of a productive state. At heart of...

Fair collective choice rules: Their origin and relationship
Nishimura, Yukihiro - 2008
This paper provides a conceptual framework on fair collective choice rules that synthesizes the studies of Goldman and Sussangkarn (1978) and Suzumura (1981) on the one hand and Tadenuma (2002, 2005) on the other. We show that both frameworks have the following binary relation as a common...

Sequential sharing rules for river sharing problems
Ansink, Erik; Weikard, Hans-Peter - 2009
We analyse the redistribution of a resource among agents who have claims to the resource and who are ordered linearly. A well known example of this particular situation is the river sharing problem. We exploit the linear order of agents to transform the river sharing problem to a sequence of...

Procedurally fair provision of public projects : an axiomatic characterization
Güth, Werner; Kliemt, Hartmut - 2011
Unanimous voting as the fundamental procedural source of political legitimacy grants veto power to each individual. We present an axiomatic characterization of a class of bidding processes to spell out the underlying egalitarian values for collective projects of a "productive state". At heart of...

A causal measure of freedom
Rommeswinkel, Hendrik - 2011
The paper axiomatizes a freedom measure based on the idea that an agent is free if she can causally influence relevant aspects of her life. To model this, causal networks are employed. It is shown that the measure is a generalization of several opportunity set based measures. The measure solves...

Pivotality and responsibility attribution in sequential voting
Bartling, Björn; Fischbacher, Urs; Schudy, Simeon - 2015 - Revised version, April 2015
This paper analyzes responsibility attributions for outcomes of collective decision making processes. In particular, we ask if decision makers are blamed for being pivotal if they implement an unpopular outcome in a sequential voting process. We conduct an experimental voting game in which...
