摘要：Two axioms are shown to characterize the relative majority rule when preferences are defined over two alternatives. According to one axiom, if all the individuals in a group are indifferent, then the associated group preference is indifference. The second axiom states that a group S prefers alternative a to alternative b if and only if there is a subgroup.T.whose.members.unanimously.prefer.a.to.b.and.such.that,.if.S.≠.T,.indifference.represents.the.preference.of the group S/T.
