Abstract(s)
The key element structuring and sustaining social and economic relations is collective decision-making, i.e. the choices that groups (large or small) engage in to accommodate in the best way possible the desires, ambitions, and interests of the involved parties. The book by Charles E. Phelps and Guru Madhavan, Making Better Choices. Design, Decisions, and Democracy (Phelps & Madhavan, Citation2021) offers a systematic, comprehensive, and compelling assessment about collective decision-making. A special emphasis is placed on the complexity of the choice process, which is indissociable from the complex nature of the social and economic environments in which choices take place.
