Abstract

Following “Barberà et al. ( 1991 , Econometrica 59:595–609)”, we study rules (or social choice functions) through which agents select a subset from a set of objects. We investigate domains on which there exist nontrivial strategy-proof rules. We establish that the set of separable preferences is a maximal domain for the existence of rules satisfying strategy-proofness and no-vetoer. Copyright Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2014
