Social Welfare Computing is an emerging discipline that seeks to direct technology to cause minimum societal disruption, and in particular seeks to minimize the harm caused directly by technology itself. This is markedly different from the better-understood uses of technology to create value or to address existing social needs.

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2009 In this paper we show that if the Pareto relation is acyclic then the set of all Pareto optimal social states coincides with chosen social states of acyclic Paretian social welfare relations. Subsequently we show that given an acyclic Paretian social welfare relations the set of all social states chosen by it coincides with the set of all states chosen

This book analyses the current context and use of ICT in the public and voluntary sectors, building on this to provide practical guidance for managers and staff. Assuming no technical knowledge, the book provides ideas, tools and resources to think critically and creatively about current ICT practice and to implement positive change at all levels.

Social Work, 2010
The similarities between 1929 and 2010 in the United States are striking. America in the 1920s was almost giddy in its prosperity. A "housing boom" enabled millions of U.S. citizens for the first time to own their own home. Americans began to depend on automobiles, electricity, radio, and mass advertising to meet household needs.

Social welfare and competitiveness
New Political Economy, 1996The relationship between social welfare and competitiveness is a perennially topical issue in both political and academic debate. From the mid-1970s it was increasingly asserted that welfare states undermine the competitiveness of advanced economies.

Implementation of Social Welfare Functions
International Economic Review, 1992Summary: A social welfare function \(f\) assigns to each economic environment \(p\) a continuous preorder \(f(p)\) on the space of allocations of private goods. \(f\) is implementable if for each large finite set \(Z\) the correspondence \(\Phi(p)\) defined by selecting the set of \(f(p)\)-maximal allocations in \(Z\) is implementable.

Irrelevant Alternatives and Social Welfare
Econometrica, 1976ITS DISAGREEABLE IMPLICATIONS about social choices have convinced many people that Arrow's impossibility theorem rests on unacceptably strong conditions. Dissatisfaction has centered on (but is not limited to) the conditions that the social ordering should be a weak ordering (WO) and that it should be independent of irrelevant alternatives (IIA).

Cooperation versus social welfare
Physics of Life ReviewsUnderstanding and promoting cooperative behaviour among self-interested individuals is a critical concern in physical, biological, and social sciences. Numerous foundational mechanisms for the evolution of cooperation have been identified, and these mechanisms have served as the basis for developing tools and interventions designed to sustain and ...

Optimizing Social Welfare in Social Networks
2019We study the computational complexity of envy minimization and maximizing the social welfare of graph-envy-free allocations in social networks. Besides the already known \(\mathrm {NP}\)-completeness of finding allocations with maximal utilitarian social welfare we prove that \(\mathrm {NP}\)-completeness is in general also given for the egalitarian ...
