Abstract

An important aspect of the complex notion of fairness in collective choices is that agents should bear responsibility only for their own actions. As a corollary, they should be treated ‘similarly’ when a change occurs for which no one is responsible. A minimal condition of ‘similar’ treatment is certainly that nobody benefits from such a change if someone else suffers from it.
