A Condorcet cycle between three or more options
Every pair of options is decided by a majority, yet the results run in a loop, so no ordering satisfies the vote.
every pair splits two to one.
the majority never lands.
1785 → 1794
Condorcet worked out the mathematics of collective choice in 1785, arguing that reason could settle how a society decides. Nine years later a collective decided against him: outlawed during the Terror, he was found dead in a cell at Bourg-la-Reine two days after his arrest, by means still disputed. he never saw the paradox that carries his name become a design constraint.
