Abstract

We relax the assumption used in axiomatic bargaining theory that the feasible set be convex. Instead we require only that it be 7 comprehensive. We show that on this domain, Kalai's (1977) characterization of the egalitarian solution remains true, as does Kalai and Smorodinsky's (1975) theorem if we use weak Pareto optimality.
