Citations in the corpus

• Degrees of Belief (2009, background): “has been mentioned by Laplace (1749–1827) in [70] and is closely related to the Condorcet Jury Theorem discussed in social choice theory [6, 72, 73, 74].”
• EPISTEMIC DEMOCRACY WITH DEFENSIBLE PREMISES1 (2013, background): “…important applications in political philosophy are Grofman and Feld’s (1988) use of the CJT to interpret Rousseau’s ‘general will’ (cf. Estlund et al. 1989) and, of course, the link between the CJT and epistemic conceptions of democracy (Cohen 1986, Gaus 1997, List and Goodin 2001, Estlund 2008).”
• Epistemic democracy with correlated voters (2017, background): “…decisions made by majority vote, the CJT has been generalized to polychotomous decisions made by the plurality rule (Lam and Suen, 1996; Ben-Yashar and Paroush, 2001; List and Goodin, 2001), and even other voting rules such as the Kemeny rule and the Borda rule (Young, 1986, 1988, 1995, 1997).”
• Is Peer Review a Good Idea? (2020, background): “Scientists are rewarded for their contributions with credit, that is, with recognition from their peers as expressed through such things as awards, citations, and prestigious publications (Merton [1973b]; Hull [1988]; Zollman [2018]).”
• Deliberation, Single-Peakedness, and the Possibility of Meaningful Democracy: Evidence from Deliberative Polls (2012, unknown): “A number of authors have recently argued that majority cycles are empirically rare (Miller 2000; List and Goodin 2001, Appendix 3; Tsetlin, Regenwetter, and Grofman 2003; Mackie 2004; Regenwetter et al. 2006).”
