Les justifications de la regle de majorite

In: Raisons politiques: études de pensée politique, Band 1, Heft 53, S. 5-12

Abstract

What are the reasons that justify the use of the rule of majority? Despite the ancient and almost universal diffusion of this rule, the issue was and remains largely neglected by philosophy and political science. This issue calls for a renewal of reflection on a decision rule that democracies have assiduously seek recovery without justification. Adapted from the source document.
