In a word, such an inclusive polity can be achieved by asking the voters or, more usually, their representatives in councils and parliaments, to state their preferences, so to facilitate the identification of that option which gains the highest average preference score. The first part of it describes three different voting procedures, the Modified Borda Count, the Quota Borda System and the Matrix Vote, and gives a number of hypothetical examples, all clearly depicted in tables. In the second part, the voting mechanisms are discussed against the background of the theory of voting, social choice theory, human rights and mediation practice. 4aLegislative Bodies - Voting0 aEdited by Peter Emerson a09592/MKRI-P/XI-2008 a09606/MKRI-P/XI-2008 a09606/MKRI-P/XI-2008 a09592/MKRI-P/XI-2008 a09592/MKRI-P/XI-2008 a09606/MKRI-P/XI-2008
