Abstract
We introduce a general framework for measuring the degree
of diversity in the preferences held by the members of a group.
We formalise and investigate three specific approaches within
that framework: diversity as the range of distinct views held,
diversity as aggregate distance between individual views, and
diversity as distance of the group's views to a single compromise
view. While similarly attractive from an intuitive point of view,
the three approaches display significant differences when
analysed using both the axiomatic method and empirical studies.
