Abstrakt

In this paper the general notion of Bourbaki structures, interpreted in terms of Suppes predicates, will be used to axiomatize a system of meta-rankings in the sense introduced by A. K. Sen. It will be argued that this axiomatization must take place in a “Kantian-ruled” world in order to provide a link between meta-rankings and individual actions.
