چکیده

In thiswork,we contribute to the formal and computational analysis of themeasurement of consensus in a society.We propose a unifyingmodel that generates a consistent decision in terms of the individual preferences and thenmeasures the consensus that arises from it.We focus our inspection on two relevant and specific cases: the Borda and the Copeland rules under a Kemeny-type measure. A computational analysis of these two proposals serves us to compare their respective performances. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
