Abstract

Welfarism is the principle that the relative desirability of social alternatives should, in all circumstances, be determined by a single social ordering of the feasible vectors of utility levels. On an unrestricted domain, it is known that Welfarism and Strong Neutrality are each equivalent to the joint satifaction of Pareto Inference and Binary Independence of Irrelevant Alternatives. In this article, the validity of this result is investigated for economic domains
