Figure 1: The alliance {A,B} of Example 1.1 with house size four. Left: upper-tail probabilities of the alliance’s seat total before and after the change from q to q′; every tail weakly increases, so the seat distribution improves in stochastic dominance. Right: the probability that both allies are rounded up falls from 0.8 to 0, because A’s formerly random seat has become part of its lower quota. Monotonicity must therefore be stated in terms of seat thresholds rather than rounding events

Rational Ghosts: Why Enlightenment Democracy Was Built to Fail
We are governed by phantoms. Not the fun kind that rattle chains in castles, but Enlightenment rational ghosts – imaginary citizens who were supposed to be dispassionate, consistent, and perfectly …
