Abstract

In this paper we determine the asymptotic behavior of the Non-dictatorship Index (NDI) introduced in Bednay, Moskalenko and Tasnádi (2019). We show that if m denotes the number of alternatives, then as the number of voters tends to infinity the NDI of any anonymous voting rule tends to (m − 1)/m, which equals the NDI of the constant rule.
