摘要:
The paper demonstrates the formal similarity between the problem of ranking opportunity sets and an Arrovian aggregation problem. This parallel is exploited to axiomatize several rules for ranking opportunity sets. The standard Framework is also extended to allow for considerations of the diversity of available choices.
