Abstract:

The paper starts from the hypothesis that the public good index (PGI) could be much more successful if it were introduced by a more prominent game theorist. It argues that the violation of local monotonicity, inherent to this measure of a priori voting power, can be an asset – especially if the public good interpretation is taken into consideration and the PGI is (re-)assigned to I-power, instead of P-power.
