Unanimity Overruled: Majority Voting and the Burden of History
Sequential majority voting over interconnected binary propositions can lead to the overruling of unanimous consensus. We characterize, within the general framework of judgement aggregation, under what circumstances this happens for some sequence of the voting process. It turns out that the class of aggregation spaces for which this difficulty arises is very large, including the aggregation of p...

In particular, we establish conditions u...

From Consumer Decision to Market Share - Unanimity of Majority?
We use a general cellular automata model to study the consumer decision-making process.

We show that in the model w...

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...
