MAJORITARIAN LOGIC

The analogues to Pareto dominance and Pareto superiority, majority dom inance and Majority superiority, allow restriction on the domain of ou tcomes for majority-rule choices. The logical structure of the argumen t extends and confirms the proposition that the effective alternatives for collective choice are endogenously determined by the existent rul e for making choices. Orthodox public choice theory has, explicitly or implicitly, presumed that the choice alternatives are exogenous to th e rule through which choices are made.
