Original position arguments: an axiomatic characterization

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: Next the authors provide an axiomatic characterization of social choice rules that can be supported by original position arguments. The authors focus on social choice rules for decision-making under ignorance. In what follows, the authors provide examples of individualistic (section 2.2.1) and social (section 2.2.3) choice rules and give exact definitions of the respective classes of such rules (sections 2.2.2 and 2.2.4). As shown in the Appendix, without Column Symmetry, the notion of an original position argument as the authors characterize it is trivialized (Theorem 4).
