Abstract

This note integrates the role of Nash independence of irrelevant alternatives with the axioms of strategy-proofness and plateau-onliness to develop a recursive procedure over the number of agents for the construction of rules characterized as a class of admissible social choice functions in one pure public good economies with single-plateaued preferences.
