Social choice theory papers on arXiv

These papers cover social choice, public choice, and voting theory. See the Handbook of Social Choice and Voting by Heckelman and Miller; or Collective Decisions and Voting by Nicolaus Tideman.

Voting rules and analysis

These are analyses of voting rules or other theoretical analysis independent of political conditions. This stretches as far as analyzing how and when voters behave strategically under particular systems, although that's more blurry.

Behaviroal/Political

These are also related to social choice theory, analyzing how social choice affects collectivities e.g. governments.

Conduct

These examine conduct, which has an impact on social choice. If public policy creates inequities between voters's ability to physically vote, for example, the outcomes of elections can easily change. It also examines normative arguments.

Normative/Philosophical

People

Certain authors have a lot of relevant papers. Generally, clicking an author's name and checking if the seacrh results are all unrelated math or largely related to social choice gives you a quick starting point; many of these papers have multiple co-authors who frequently also author different papers without the same co-authors, so a group of co-authors may have a significant amount of non-overlapping work.
