Dear EM folks, Back in August 2007, Jobst posted a challenge under the subject heading
Challenge: Elect the compromise when there're only 2 factions You can read the details of this seminal challenge on the EM archives at http://lists.electorama.com/pipermail/election-methods-electorama.com/2007-August/020758.html To make a long story short, this challenge resulted in a paper entitled, “Some Chance for Consensus,” that Jobst and I submitted to the Journal of Social Choice and Welfare about a year ago. After a lengthy peer review process it has been accepted for publication. We would like to thank all of you that took part in the initial discussion and gave valuable criticism on our early drafts. Here’s a link to a final copy: http://www.pik-potsdam.de/members/heitzig/some-chance-for-consensus Enjoy! ---- Election-Methods mailing list - see http://electorama.com/em for list info
