An evaluation of the impact of the Felsenthal/Machover contribution to the field of voting power and procedures, both at the scientific level and of practical application, was captured in a festschrift at a special VPinP Symposium titled ‘Voting Power in Social/Political Institutions: Typology, Measurement, Applications’, 20-22 March 2011:
