First published in 1986, this volume of essays offers an examination of the philosophical foundations of social choice theory, in its context as the outgrowth of welfare economics. The essays advance both criticisms and suggestions for alternative approaches.
'The editors and CUP should be thanked for producing a well-made book of stylish and stimulating papers which both define and extend the enquiry which is contemporary social choice theory.' – Mind
'The volume of essays is enthusiastically recommended to anyone with an interest in social choice theory (SCT) … Elster and Hylland's introduction and Sen's lengthy epilogue-commentary identify themes and provide a perspective which nicely serves to give the collection an added coherence. Also helpful to the uninitiated is a separate overview by Hylland on the purpose and significance of SCT. It is important to emphasize that a grasp of formal SCT or logic is not necessary for an understanding of any essay.' – Canadian Philosophical Review
