Trade-off between manipulability and dictatorial power: A proof of the Gibbard–Satterthwaite Theorem

Author

  • Bonifacio, Agustín G.
Abstract
By endowing the class of tops-only and efficient social choice rules with a dual order structure that exploits the trade-off between different degrees of manipulability and dictatorial power rules allow agents to have, we provide a proof of the Gibbard–Satterthwaite Theorem.
