Abstract

AbstractWe apply simple games with alternatives to describe voting mechanisms used in parliamentary organizations. As a matter of example, we analyze the Catalonia Parliament. Special attention is paid to abstention, which is allowed in most voting rules but is not taken into account when a voting rule is modelled as a simple classical game. To measure the power of each voter in each game, the extended Shapley–Shubik index is considered. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
