Abstract: Abstract The method of majority decision is defined by: An alternative x is socially at least as good as another alternative y iff the number of individuals preferring x over y is greater than or equal to the number of individuals preferring y over x. The chapter is concerned with the Inada-type necessary and sufficient conditions for transitivity and quasi-transitivity under the method of majority decision.
