This positive result prevails when a weak Pareto condition is imposed. Moreover, under weak independence, an impossibility of the Wilson (J Econ 5:478-486, 1972) type vanishes.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSocial choice without the Pareto principle under weak independenceArticle2-s2.0-8491196650210.1007/s00355-014-0812-09614Q195343Q3WOS:000345339100008
