Abstract

There has been a number of axiomatic studies of approval voting since its introduction by Brams and Fishburn (1978). The axiomatic characterizations of approval voting have given researchers a better understanding of the structure of approval voting, and have made the pros and cons of approval voting much sharper. In this article, we present a survey of various axiomatic characterizations of approval voting that are there in the literature.
