Binary Self‐Selective Voting Rules
ABSTRACT This paper introduces a novel binary stability property for voting rules—called binary self‐selectivity—by which a society considering whether to replace its voting rule using itself in pairwise elections will choose not to do so. In Theorem 1, we show that a neutral voting rule is binary self‐selective if and only if it is universally self ...

Generative artificial intelligence and evaluating strategic decisions
Abstract Research Summary Strategic decisions are uncertain and often irreversible. Hence, predicting the value of alternatives is important for strategic decision making. We investigate the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) in evaluating strategic alternatives using business models generated by AI (study 1) or submitted to a competition ...

CONDORCET CONSISTENCY AND PAIRWISE JUSTIFIABILITY UNDER VARIABLE AGENDAS
Abstract We compare the consequences of imposing upon collective choice functions the classical requirement of Condorcet consistency with those arising when requiring the functions to satisfy the principle of pairwise justifiability. We show that, despite the different logic underlying these two requirements, they are equivalent when applied to ...

The reduction in food losses and waste within agrifood chains is a topic of great interest due to the impact it generates in economic, environmental, and social aspects. An action that allows us to mitigate losses and waste is the implementation of the circular economy model, where all resources and waste are used and factors such as water, energy ...

Exploiting Polyhedral Symmetries in Social Choice
A large amount of literature in social choice theory deals with quantifying the probability of certain election outcomes. One way of computing the probability of a specific voting situation under the Impartial Anonymous Culture assumption is via counting

Caring for minorities: The Flexible Decision Rule
Abstract Simple majority rule disregards the interests of the losing minority; their vote does not affect the outcome. When vote outcomes are narrow, close to 50% of voters, the concerns of a significant part of the voters are disregarded. This increases polarization in the population and endangers democracy.

Evaluating blockchain as a participatory organisational system: looking for transaction efficiency
Abstract The article presents a decision‐making model that can be used with blockchain technology. Blockchain is used as an alternative transaction mechanism to authority and the market, where the decision is decentralised within the organisation. Thus, the process is parameterised around the acceptance or not of a project, depending on individual ...
