Résumé : This paper presents a review and a classification of the main theoretical results obtained up to now in the important field of the aggregation of preferences. (Let us mention that multicriteria analysis is not considered here, as it essentially consists of methods for the aggregation of preferences). Section 1 describes a tableau, each square of which corresponds to a particular type of preference aggregation problem, and gives, for each of them, a list of references. The different types of problems are obtained by considering the various kinds of informations which can be obtained concerning the global preferences of a committee and the preferences of the individual members. Sections 2, 3 and 4 present some comments respectively on Arrow's problem (three first columns of the tableau), on the theory of choice functions (fourth column) and voting procedures (fifth column). In the bibliography, each reference is associated, in terms of its subject, to one particular square of the tableau. © 1982.
