摘要：Suppose it is admitted that when all individuals prefer a state of a airs to an- other, the social preference should follow their unanimous assessment. Then it seems hard to avoid the conclusion that when all individuals are indi erent between the two states of a airs, so should the social judgment be one of indif- ference. Because if the social judgment was a strict preference in that case, it would remain so in the case when all individuals have a strict but slight prefer- ence in the other direction, unless the social preferences are discontinuous with respect to the state of a airs.
