Social choice theory or social choice is a theoretical framework for analysis of combining individual opinions, preferences, interests, or welfares to reach a collective decision or social welfare in some sense.

Similarities between Electoral system and Social choice theory

Electoral system and Social choice theory have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Arrow's impossibility theorem, Condorcet paradox, Constitution, Gibbard–Satterthwaite theorem, Marquis de Condorcet, Mechanism design.

Arrow's impossibility theorem

In social choice theory, Arrow's impossibility theorem, the general possibility theorem or Arrow's paradox is an impossibility theorem stating that when voters have three or more distinct alternatives (options), no ranked voting electoral system can convert the ranked preferences of individuals into a community-wide (complete and transitive) ranking while also meeting a specified set of criteria: unrestricted domain, non-dictatorship, Pareto efficiency and independence of irrelevant alternatives.
