Concept
Voting Paradox
The
voting paradox
, also known as
Condorcet's paradox
, occurs when
collective preferences
can be cyclic, even if
individual preferences
are not, leading to a situation where no option is the most preferred by the group. This paradox highlights the potential inconsistencies in
majority rule voting systems
, where the aggregation of
individual preferences
does not necessarily result in a clear, collective decision.
