Abstract
⺠An appealing monotonicity condition for preference aggregation rules (social welfare correspondences) is introduced. ⺠It is argued that, unlike monotonicity in social choice functions, this condition does not result in impossibility results. ⺠A monotonic characterization of the Kemeny-Young method is shown. ⺠A new class of rules (super-majority rules) are proposed and also characterized with this monotonicity. ⺠By the former characterization, it is also shown that many famous preference rules fail to be monotonic.
