"This paper examines the properties of majority-rule institutions given fully strategic behavior by all agents. Results are provided, characterizing majority-rule outcomes, for several alternative agenda institutions. The main conclusion is that institutional arrangements,
specifically mechanisms of agenda construction, impose constraints on majority outcomes. In the last decade multidimensional voting models have become subtle and complex instruments for explicating social choices by majority rule. What has been learned from them is that little will be known about an institution based on majority rule if the focus is exclusively upon the majority preference relation between alternatives." |
