On the axiomatic approach to freedom as opportunity: a general characterization result
نویسنده
چکیده
The aim of this paper is to provide a different, somewhat more general, approach to the axiomatic ranking of opportunity sets in terms of freedom of choice. The opportunity ranking is defined axiomatically relative to some standard of freedom or theory of freedom. The paper then provides a general characterization result of the opportunity ranking in terms of the family of freedom standards.

متن کاملEssential alternatives and freedom rankings
We study the problem of ranking opportunity sets in terms of freedom of choice. The analysis is based on the notion of essential alternatives introduced in Puppe (1996). An alternative in an opportunity set is called essential if by deleting it, the reduced opportunity set offers less freedom than the original set. We provide an axiomatic characterization of the ranking according to which an op...
متن کاملOn diversity and freedom of choice
We discuss how information about diversity of alternatives may affect our judgments about an individual’s freedom of choice as reflected in the available set of alternatives. We provide an axiomatic characterization of a similarity-based rule for ranking alternative opportunity sets in terms of the individual’s freedom of choice. 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.

Here, we present a novel two-step approach for optimum design of cellular truss-beams based on desired natural frequencies. The proposed approach at- tempts to decrease the design complexities, based on the so called Axiomatic Design, before any eort to solve the physical problem itself. It also serves as a generic approach which nds its generality through dimensional analysis with its accuracy...
متن کاملFuzzy transferable-utility games: a weighted allocation and related results
By considering the supreme-utilities among fuzzy sets and the weights among participants simultaneously, we introduce the supreme-weighted value on fuzzy transferable-utility games. Further, we provide some equivalent relations to characterize the family of all solutions that admit a potential on weights. We also propose the dividend approach to provide alternative viewpoint for the potential a...
