Abstract: This article surveys seven directions of consensus theories: Arrowian results, federation consensus rules, metric consensus rules, tournament solutions, restricted domains, abstract consensus theories, algorithmic and complexity issues. This survey is oriented in the sense that it is mainly - but not exclusively - concentrated on the most significant results obtained, sometimes with other researchers, by a team of French researchers who are or were full or associate members of the Centre d'analyse et de mathématique sociale (CAMS).

Keywords: aggregation rule; arrowian result; complexity; consensus theory; lower valuation; median; median semilattice; metric consensus rule; restricted domain; tournament solutions; valuation inférieure; distance; complexité; demi-treillis à médianes; domaine restreint; médiane; règle d'agrégation; résultat arrowien; solution de tournois; théorie du consensus (search for similar items in EconPapers)
