Amartya Sen y la elección colectiva

Abstract

Entre Arrow y Sen hay dos tipos de ruptura. La primera, que coherente con las premisas fundantes de los teoremas de imposibilidad de Arrow , muestra que es factible encontrar procesos de elección colectiva consistentes, siempre y cuando se esté dispuesto a renunciar a la pureza" axiomática. La segunda coloca a Sen en un terreno muy diferente al de Arrow. Sen hace explícitas las bondades de las comparaciones interpersonales y no oculta sus simpatías por las medidas cardinales de utilidad y de bienestar. Muestra que si se acepta que un individuo j decide teniendo en cuenta el bienestar que experimentaría en el caso de encontrase en la situación x de una persona i, no queda más remedio que hacer explícito el criterio de justicia que subyace a toda elección colectiva."
