Abstract
Normative concerns are central to the study of democratic theory and the policy- relevant areas of political science and economics. The same normative concerns are central to the study of axiomatic social choice theory. Despite similarities in origin and in underlying philosophical orientation, the fields have evolved separately and within different methodologies. This paper attempts to survey the most recent major results in axiomatic social choice theory within a unifying interpretation accessible to nonspecialists.
