Several spatial voting models allowing to locate voters or legislators on latent dimensions have been developed, giving rise to an important number of studies in the literature on representation. These techniques assume that actors choose between alternatives by comparing their corresponding utilities; all utilities being defined as a function of the ideological distances between the voter and ...
متن کاملOptimal Retrospective Voting∗
We argue that optimal retrospective voting can be thought of as an equilibrium selection criterion—specifically, a criterion that selects so as to maximize voter welfare. Formalized this way, we go on to provide an informational rationale for retrospective voting. We show that a Voter can use retrospective voting to extract information from a Legislator with policy expertise. In particular, whe...

Some people have a concern for a fair distribution of incomes while others do not. Does such a concern matter for majority voting on redistribution? Fairness preferences are relevant for redistribution outcomes only if fair-minded voters are pivotal. Pivotality, in turn, depends on the structure of income classes. We experimentally study voting on redistribution between two income classes and s...

In this paper, based on a game-theoretic model developed in three previous pa...
