Tiivistelmä
One of the most obvious desiderata of democratic decision-making is
that the political outcomes (policies, elected persons, legislation) be responsive to
popular opinions. In representative forms of governance the responsiveness is not
expected to pertain to every single outcome, but the very idea of going to the people
seems to presuppose some degree of responsiveness. In social choice theory
several notions that aim to capture aspects of responsiveness have been introduced
and related to other desiderata of social choice. We shall discuss the most common
notions and discuss their relevance in democratic decision making. We shall also
look at the paradoxes related to non-responsiveness from a novel angle, viz. we try
to determine their significance to the multiple criteria decision making (MCDM). It
turns out that some methods of aggregating criterion performances of policy alternatives
can be ruled out because of their bizarre behavior under some decision settings.
