Abstract

This article presents the thoughts of some economists, who sought to explain how the economic decisions made by the political agent affect the collective agents. In this way, the intention here is to present two major strands of orthodox economic theory that try to explain these impacts in a clear way. The first with the theory of the median voter and the choices by means of joint utility, where the legislator has the role of arbiter in the decisions and the second with the Voting Theories based on collective choices that add actions to this legislator. Finally, some final considerations about both theories.
