Single-Peaked Preferences and Median Voter Theorems

2008
Many important choices are made by majority rule. However, as is widely known, Condorcet (1785) discovered an important problem with majority rule: For a given set of alternatives, it may be the case that, for each alternative, there is some other alternative which is preferred by a majority of the eligible voters.

Condorcet's Paradox and the Median Voter Theorem for Randomized Social Choice [PDF]

Economics Bulletin, 2015
Condorcet's paradox is one of the most prominent results in social choice theory. It says that there may not exist any alternative that a net majority prefers over every other alternative. When outcomes need not be deterministic alternatives, we show that a similar paradox still exists even if preferences are dichotomous.

Network geometry and the scope of the median voter theorem [PDF]

, 2015
It is shown that the median voter theorem for committee-decisions holds over a full unimodal preference domain whenever (i) the underlying median interval space satisfi?es interval antiexchange and (ii) unimodality is defi?ned with respect to the incidence-geometry of the relevant outcome space or network.

An Analysis of Public Expenditures Using the Median Voter Theorem for Turkey

2014
In this paper, throughout a standard Public Choice model for the demand of public goods, we intend to analyze the public expenditures in Turkey. In doing so, we employ a panel approach to test the median voter theorem at provincial level, over the period 1995-2001.
