The
measurement
POWER
Dan S.
Felsenthal
is Professor of Political
Science at Haifa University. Israel.
Moshé Machover
is Professor of Philosophy at
King s College, University of London. UK.
This book is the first of its kind: a monograph
devoted to a systematic critical examination and
exposition of the theory of a priori voting power.
This important branch of social choice theory
overlaps with game theory and is concerned with
the ability of members in bodies that make yes or
no decisions by vote to affect outcomes. The book
includes, among other topics, a reasoned
distinction between two fundamental types of
voting power, the authors discoveries on the
paradoxes of voting power and a novel analysis of
decision rules ¡hat admit abstention.
Formal mathematical statements are accompanied
by reader-friendly informal explanations. The
theory is applied and illustrated in extensive case
studies. A series of US court cases concerning the
application of the principle of one person, one
vote are critically examined in the light of the
theory. The history of qualified majority voting
in the European Community s Council of
Ministers is outlined and the distribution of voting
power under this rule is analysed for each period
of the Community s growth. The measurement of
voting power where abstention is a distinct option
is illustrated with the examples of the US
Congress and the UN Security Council.
This important book breaks new ground and will
be of interest to students and researchers in social
choice, game theory, and in related disciplines
such as political economy, business administration
and constitutional law.
