3: Mr. Dodgson and the Dean by R. H. CASSEN
Lecturer in Economics, University of London
Lewis Carroll was not the first man to be bothered by the unsaflsfactoriness of committee deci- ' sions but he was one of the earliest to try a systematic analysis of the way in which committees work. Robert Cassen , continuing in this tradition, discusses some of the hazards of collective decision-making.
J. Johnston talks about the theory of economic decision-making: May 9
