Summary

Introduction

In this Commentary, I review the article by D. The author addresses the problem of the dependence of the consensus time with the population size in a mean field (MF) version of the majorityrule (MR) opinion dynamics. The size of the group of agents selected at each evolution step, G, is drawn from a probability distribution pG, which for large G decays as a power law.
