Weakened liberal rule respecting others’ consensus: An axiomatic characterization

Author

  • Park, Seongkyu (Gilbert)

Abstract

I extend the strong liberal rule (Kasher and Rubinstein, 1997), by requiring of at least one agreement, defining the quasi-liberal rule. I axiomatize it and related its generalization to the consent rule (Samet and Schmeidler, 2003).
