Ranking Opportunity Sets, Averaging Versus Preference for Freedom

Potoms, Tom - 2014

We introduce and axiomatize two quasi-orderings that extend preferences on a set to its power set. First, a modified version of indirect utility takes into account the number of maximal elements in the opportunity set. This rule meets Puppe's axiom of preference for freedom. Second, an averaging...
