To do so, in the first part of the paper, I apply different power measures traditionally used in the literature as well as some other ones lesser known in this context. I compare then the predictions of several indices for the relative power of different decision-makers in different voting situations. In the second part, I describe the methodology to design an optimal decision rule. A simple computational exercise based on this methodology suggests that the residential water users in Adour-Garonne river basin were under represented in the river basin committee during 1989-2006. date: 2015-02 date_type: published publisher: TSE Working Paper official_url: http://tse-fr.eu/pub/29079 faculty: tse divisions: tse keywords: Environmental management keywords: water policy keywords: collective decision-making keywords: voting keywords: power indices keywords: optimal decision rule language: en has_fulltext: TRUE view_date_year: 2015 full_text_status: public monograph_type: working_paper series: TSE Working Paper volume: 15-558 place_of_pub: Toulouse pages: 47 institution: Université Toulouse 1 Capitole department: Toulouse school of economics book_title: TSE Working Paper oai_identifier: oai:tse-fr.eu:29079 harvester_local_overwrite: department harvester_local_overwrite: faculty harvester_local_overwrite: keywords harvester_local_overwrite: site harvester_local_overwrite: place_of_pub harvester_local_overwrite: pages harvester_local_overwrite: institution harvester_local_overwrite: id_number oai_lastmod: 2015-12-11T10:04:05Z oai_set: tse site: ut1 citation: Zaporozhets, Vera (2015) Power Distribution in French River Basin Committees.
