Voting on Majority Rules∗
We analyze an overlapping generations model of voting on “reform projects”. These resemble investments in that they first require some investment expenditure and later pay off. Since the time during which old people get the benefit is shorter, or because older people are more wealthy and hence pay more taxes, they are more conservative (against reforms) than young people. We show that if people...
متن کاملImplementation of Majority Voting Rules∗
I study implementation by agenda, a straightforward voting mechanism that is widely used in practice. The main result resolves an open question which dates back to Black [1958] and Farquharson [1957/1969]. It establishes that any neutral majority voting rule which satisfies the two necessary conditions identified in prior work (McKelvey and Niemi [1978]; Moulin [1986]) as well as a significantl...
متن کاملMeasuring voting power in convex policy spaces
Classical power index analysis considers the individual’s ability to influence the aggregated group decision by changing its own vote, where all decisions and votes are assumed to be binary. In many practical applications we have more options than either “yes” or “no”. Here we generalize three important power indices to continuous convex policy spaces. This allows the analysis of a collection o...
متن کاملWeak independence and veto power
Weak independence (WI) prevents x from socially ranking above y at profile p if y ranks above x at profile p9 and each individual ordering of hx,yj is the same at p as at p9. If f is transitive-valued and satisfies WI and Pareto then someone has veto power. 2000 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
متن کاملRcd Rules and Power Systems Observability
Power system state estimation is a process to find the bus voltage magnitudes and phase angles at every bus based on a given measurement set. The state estimation convergency is related to the sufficiency of the measurement set. Observability analysis actually tests this kind of problem and guarantees the state estimation accuracy. A new and useful algorithm is proposed and applied in this pape...
