On the possibility of Paretian liberalism: a comment

Theory and Decision, 2023, vol. 95, issue 2, No 8, 363 pages

Abstract: Abstract In 1981, the property of self-supporting preferences was shown to be a sufficient condition to circumvent Sen’s famous impossibility result on Paretian liberalism. A similar condition was proposed by Dougherty and Edward in a very recent issue of this journal. The present comment sheds light on the logical connection between these two findings.
