Abstract: | For the case of two alternatives and a given finite set of at least three individuals, seven axioms are shown to characterize the rules that are either the relative majority rule or the relative majority in which a given individual, the chairman, can always break ties. An axiomatization of the relative majority rules with a chairman is suggested that holds for an even number of individuals and that, for an odd number of individuals, characterizes the rules that are either the relative majority rule or a relative majority rule with a chairman. |
