Abstract: This paper aims to give a global vision concerning the state of the art of studies on 13 power indices and to establish which of them are more suitable for describing the real situations which are, from time to time, taken into consideration. In such contexts, different comparisons have been developed in terms of properties, axiomatic grounds and so on. This analysis points out various open problems.
