Harrie de Swart is a Dutch logician and mathematician with a great
and open int- est in applications of logic. After being confronted
with Arrow's Theorem, Harrie became very interested in social
choice theory. In 1986 he took the initiative to start up a group
of Dutch scientists for the study of social choice theory. This
initiative grew out to a research group and a series of colloquia,
which were held approximately every month at the University of
Tilburg in The Netherlands. The organization of the colloquia was
in the hands of Harrie and under his guidance they became more and
more internationally known. Many international scholars liked
visiting the social choice colloquia in Tilburg and enjoyed giving
one or more presentations about their work. They liked Harrie's
kindness and hospitality, and the openness of the group for
anything and everything in the eld of social choice. The Social
Choice Theory Group started up by Harrie consisted, and still c-
sists, of scholars from several disciplines; mostly economics,
mathematics, and (mathematical) psychology. It was set up for the
study of and discussion about anything that had to do with social
choice theory including, and not in the least, the supervision of
PhD students in the theory. Members of the group were, among o-
ers, Thom Bezembinder (psychologist), Hans Peters (mathematician),
Pieter Ruys (economist), Stef Tijs (mathematician and game
theorist) and, of course, Harrie de Swart (logician and
mathematician).
