Pareto efficiency or Pareto optimality is a situation that cannot be modified so as to make any one individual or preference criterion better off without making at least one individual or preference criterion worse off. The concept is named after Vilfredo Pareto (1848–1923), Italian engineer and economist, who used the concept in his studies of economic efficiency and income distribution. The following three concepts are closely related:

帕累托效率或帕累托最优是一种不能被修改的情况,它使得任何个体或优先准则变得更好而不使至少一个个体或一项优先准则变得更差。这个概念是以意大利工程师、经济学家维尔弗雷多·帕累托(1848-1923)的名字命名的。他在研究经济效率和收入分配时使用了这个概念。以下三个概念密切相关:


  • Given an initial situation, a Pareto improvement is a new situation which is weakly preferred by all agents, and strictly preferred by at least one agent. In a sense, it is a unanimously-agreed improvement: if we move to the new situation, some agents will gain, and no agents will lose.
  • A situation is called Pareto dominated if it has a Pareto improvement.
  • A situation is called Pareto optimal or Pareto efficient if it is not Pareto dominated.
  • 在一个给定的初始条件下,一个帕累托改进指的是一种不为大多数主体所喜爱但被至少一个主体喜爱的状况。在某种意义上,它是一种一致同意的改进:如果我们处于这种新的情况下,某些主体可能获利,且没有主体会蒙受损失。
  • 一种状况如果拥有一个帕累托改进,那么它被称作受帕累托支配的。
  • 一种状况如果是不受帕累托支配的,那么它被称作帕累托最优的或帕累托有效的。


The Pareto frontier is the set of all Pareto efficient allocations, conventionally shown graphically. It also is variously known as the Pareto front or Pareto set.[1]

帕累托边界是所有帕累托有效分配的集合,按惯例以图表形式表示它。它也被称为帕累托前沿或帕累托集。


"Pareto efficiency" is considered as a minimal notion of efficiency that does not necessarily result in a socially desirable distribution of resources: it makes no statement about equality, or the overall well-being of a society.[2][3]:46–49 It is a necessary, but not sufficient, condition of efficiency.

“帕累托最优”被认为是一种狭义的效率,它不一定产生社会所期望的资源分配: 它没有为平等或一个社会的总体福祉发声。它是效率的必要不充分条件。


In addition to the context of efficiency in allocation, the concept of Pareto efficiency also arises in the context of efficiency in production vs. x-inefficiency: a set of outputs of goods is Pareto efficient if there is no feasible re-allocation of productive inputs such that output of one product increases while the outputs of all other goods either increase or remain the same.[4]:459

除了分配效率的背景之外,帕累托最优的概念也出现在生产效率对比于x-低效率的背景之下,即如果生产投入没有可行的再分配,或者说一种产品的产出增加,而所有其他产品的产出增加或保持不变,那么一组产品的产出就是帕累托有效的。


Besides economics, the notion of Pareto efficiency has been applied to the selection of alternatives in engineering and biology. Each option is first assessed, under multiple criteria, and then a subset of options is ostensibly identified with the property that no other option can categorically outperform the specified option. It is a statement of impossibility of improving one variable without harming other variables in the subject of multi-objective optimization (also termed Pareto optimization).

除了经济学,帕累托最优的概念已经应用到工程和生物学中的替代品的选择。首先根据多项标准对每个选项进行评估,然后确定选项子集,其中的任何元素都具有没有其他选项可以明确胜过该元素的属性。在多目标优化(又称帕累托优化)中,这是一种对在不损害其他变量的情况下改进一个变量的不可能性的陈述。


Overview 综述

"Pareto optimality" is a formally defined concept used to describe when an allocation is optimal. An allocation is not Pareto optimal if there is an alternative allocation where improvements can be made to at least one participant's well-being without reducing any other participant's well-being. If there is a transfer that satisfies this condition, the reallocation is called a "Pareto improvement". When no further Pareto improvements are possible, the allocation is a "Pareto optimum".

An allocation is not Pareto optimal if there is an alternative allocation where improvements can be made to at least one participant's well-being without reducing any other participant's well-being. If there is a transfer that satisfies this condition, the reallocation is called a "Pareto improvement". When no further Pareto improvements are possible, the allocation is a "Pareto optimum".

“帕累托最优”是一个正式定义的概念,用来描述一个分配何时是最优的。如果有一种替代性的分配方式可以在不降低任何其他参与者福祉的情况下改善至少一个参与者的福祉,那么这种分配就不是帕累托最优的。如果有一个转移满足这个条件,这个再分配就被称为“帕累托改进”。当无法进一步实现帕累托改进时,这个分配就是“帕累托最优”。


The formal presentation of the concept in an economy is as follows: Consider an economy with [math]\displaystyle{ n }[/math] agents and [math]\displaystyle{ k }[/math] goods. Then an allocation [math]\displaystyle{ \{x_1, ..., x_n\} }[/math], where [math]\displaystyle{ x_i \in \mathbb{R}^k }[/math] for all i, is Pareto optimal if there is no other feasible allocation [math]\displaystyle{ \{x_1', ..., x_n'\} }[/math] such that, for utility function [math]\displaystyle{ u_i }[/math] for each agent [math]\displaystyle{ i }[/math], [math]\displaystyle{ u_i(x_i') \geq u_i(x_i) }[/math] for all [math]\displaystyle{ i \in \{1, ..., n\} }[/math] with [math]\displaystyle{ u_i(x_i') \gt u_i(x_i) }[/math] for some [math]\displaystyle{ i }[/math].[5] Here, in this simple economy, "feasibility" refers to an allocation where the total amount of each good that is allocated sums to no more than the total amount of the good in the economy. In a more complex economy with production, an allocation would consist both of consumption vectors and production vectors, and feasibility would require that the total amount of each consumed good is no greater than the initial endowment plus the amount produced.

这个概念在一个经济体系中的正式表现如下: 考虑一个有n个主体和k个商品的经济体系,如果没有其他可行的分配使得对于效用函数对任意主体i满足,对某些个体i满足,那么一个分配,其中i,是 Pareto 最优的。在这个简单的经济体系中,“可行性”是指每种商品的分配总额不超过该经济体系中所有商品的总额。在一个有生产能力的更为复杂的经济体中,一个分配将包括消费载体和生产载体,且可行性要求每种消费品的总量不大于初始禀赋加上生产总量。


In principle, a change from a generally inefficient economic allocation to an efficient one is not necessarily considered to be a Pareto improvement. Even when there are overall gains in the economy, if a single agent is disadvantaged by the reallocation, the allocation is not Pareto optimal. For instance, if a change in economic policy eliminates a monopoly and that market subsequently becomes competitive, the gain to others may be large. However, since the monopolist is disadvantaged, this is not a Pareto improvement. In theory, if the gains to the economy are larger than the loss to the monopolist, the monopolist could be compensated for its loss while still leaving a net gain for others in the economy, allowing for a Pareto improvement. Thus, in practice, to ensure that nobody is disadvantaged by a change aimed at achieving Pareto efficiency, compensation of one or more parties may be required. It is acknowledged, in the real world, that such compensations may have unintended consequences leading to incentive distortions over time, as agents supposedly anticipate such compensations and change their actions accordingly.[6]

原则上,从一个普遍低效率的经济分配到一个高效率的经济分配的转变不一定被认为是一个帕累托改进。即使经济总体是获益的,如果一个主体在再分配中处于不利地位,这个分配也不是帕累托最优的。例如,如果经济政策的某个改变消除了垄断,市场随后变得具有竞争力,那么其他主体的收益可能很大。然而,由于垄断者处于不利地位,这不是一个帕累托改善。理论上,如果经济体系的收益大于垄断者的损失,考虑到帕累托改善,垄断者可以在为经济体系中的其他主体留下净收益的情况下得到补偿。因此,在实践中,为了确保没有人会因为旨在实现帕累托最优的改变而处于不利地位,可能需要对一个或多个当事方进行补偿。在现实世界中,因为代理人可能预期这种补偿并相应地改变他们的行为,随着时间的推移,这种补偿可能会造成意外的后果以及动机的扭曲。


Under the idealized conditions of the first welfare theorem, a system of free markets, also called a "competitive equilibrium", leads to a Pareto-efficient outcome. It was first demonstrated mathematically by economists Kenneth Arrow and Gérard Debreu.

在福利经济学第一定理的理想条件下,一个自由市场系统,也称为“竞争均衡” ,对应一个帕累托有效的结果。经济学家肯尼斯·阿罗(Kenneth Arrow)和杰拉德·迪布鲁(Gérard Debreu)首先用数学方法证明了这一点。


However, the result only holds under the restrictive assumptions necessary for the proof: markets exist for all possible goods, so there are no externalities; all markets are in full equilibrium; markets are perfectly competitive; transaction costs are negligible; and market participants have perfect information.

然而,这个结果只有在证明所需的限制性假设下才成立,即所有可能的商品都存在市场,因此不存在外部效应; 所有市场都处于完全均衡状态; 市场是完全竞争的; 交易成本是可忽略的; 市场参与者拥有完全的信息。


In the absence of perfect information or complete markets, outcomes will generally be Pareto inefficient, per the Greenwald-Stiglitz theorem.[7]

根据 Greenwald-Stiglitz 定理,在缺乏完全信息或完全市场的情况下,这个结果通常是帕累托低效的。


The second welfare theorem is essentially the reverse of the first welfare-theorem. It states that under similar, ideal assumptions, any Pareto optimum can be obtained by some competitive equilibrium, or free market system, although it may also require a lump-sum transfer of wealth.[5]

福利经济学第二定理实质上是福利经济学第一定理的逆转。它指出,在类似的理想假设下,任何帕累托最优都可以通过某种竞争均衡或自由市场制度获得,尽管它可能也需要一次性转移财富。

Weak Pareto optimality is a situation that cannot be strictly improved for every individual.[8]

Weak Pareto optimality is a situation that cannot be strictly improved for every individual.

弱帕累托最优是一种不能严格地改善每个个体的情况。


Formally, we define a strong pareto improvement as a situation in which all agents are strictly better-off (in contrast to just "Pareto improvement", which requires that one agent is strictly better-off and the other agents are at least as good). A situation is weak Pareto-optimal if it has no strong Pareto-improvements.

在形式上,我们将强帕累托改善定义为所有主体严格处于较好状态的情况(与之相对的只是“帕累托改进” ,它要求一个主体严格处于较好状态,而其他主体至少同样良好)。没有强帕累托改进的情况是弱帕累托最优的。


Any strong Pareto-improvement is also a weak Pareto-improvement. The opposite is not true; for example, consider a resource allocation problem with two resources, which Alice values at 10, 0 and George values at 5, 5. Consider the allocation giving all resources to Alice, where the utility profile is (10,0).

任何强帕累托改进也是弱帕累托改进。反之则不然; 例如,考虑一个包含两个资源的资源分配问题,Alice值为10,0,George值为5,5。考虑将所有资源分配给 Alice 的分配,它的分配方案为(10,0)。


  • It is a weak-PO, since no other allocation is strictly better to both agents (there are no strong Pareto improvements).
  • But it is not a strong-PO, since the allocation in which George gets the second resource is strictly better for George and weakly better for Alice (it is a weak Pareto improvement) - its utility profile is (10,5)
  • 它是一个弱帕累托最优,因为没有其他任何分配对上述两个主体是更优的(没有强帕累托改进)。
  • 但它不是一个强帕累托最优,因为这个George在其中得到第二顺位的资源的分配对George是严格更优的且对Alice是弱更优的(它是一个弱帕累托改进),它的分配方案为(10,5)

Constrained Pareto efficiency 模板:Anchor 受约束的帕累托效率

Constrained Pareto optimality is a weakening of Pareto-optimality, accounting for the fact that a potential planner (e.g., the government) may not be able to improve upon a decentralized market outcome, even if that outcome is inefficient. This will occur if it is limited by the same informational or institutional constraints as are individual agents.[10]:104

Constrained Pareto optimality is a weakening of Pareto-optimality, accounting for the fact that a potential planner (e.g., the government) may not be able to improve upon a decentralized market outcome, even if that outcome is inefficient. This will occur if it is limited by the same informational or institutional constraints as are individual agents.

受约束的帕累托最优是帕累托最优的弱化,因为一个潜在的规划者(比如政府)可能无法改善分散市场的结果,即使这个结果是低效的。如果它受到与独立主体相同的信息或机构约束的限制,就会发生这种情况。


An example is of a setting where individuals have private information (for example, a labor market where the worker's own productivity is known to the worker but not to a potential employer, or a used-car market where the quality of a car is known to the seller but not to the buyer) which results in moral hazard or an adverse selection and a sub-optimal outcome. In such a case, a planner who wishes to improve the situation is unlikely to have access to any information that the participants in the markets do not have. Hence, the planner cannot implement allocation rules which are based on the idiosyncratic characteristics of individuals; for example, "if a person is of type A, they pay price p1, but if of type B, they pay price p2" (see Lindahl prices). Essentially, only anonymous rules are allowed (of the sort "Everyone pays price p") or rules based on observable behavior; "if any person chooses x at price px, then they get a subsidy of ten dollars, and nothing otherwise". If there exists no allowed rule that can successfully improve upon the market outcome, then that outcome is said to be "constrained Pareto-optimal".

例如,个人拥有私人信息的情况(例如,劳动力市场中工人自己的生产率为工人所知,而潜在雇主却不知道,或者二手车市场中汽车的质量为卖方所知,而非买方所知)导致道德风险或逆向选择和次优结果。在这种情况下,希望改善局面的规划者不太可能获得市场参与者没有的任何信息。因此,计划者不能执行基于个人特质的分配规则; 例如,”如果一个人属于 a 型,他们支付 p1的价格,但如果属于 b 型,他们支付 p2的价格”(见林达尔价格)。基本上,只有隐性规则(类似于“每个人都支付价格 p”)或基于可观察行为的规则被允许; “如果任何人以价格 px 选择 x,那么他们将得到10美元的补贴,除此之外什么也得不到”。如果不存在能够成功改善市场结果的允许规则,那么该结果被称为是“受约束的帕累托最优的”。


The concept of constrained Pareto optimality assumes benevolence on the part of the planner and hence is distinct from the concept of government failure, which occurs when the policy making politicians fail to achieve an optimal outcome simply because they are not necessarily acting in the public's best interest.

受约束的帕累托最优的概念假定了计划者的仁慈,因此不同于政府失灵的概念。政府失灵在制定政策的政客仅仅因为他们的行为不一定符合公众的最佳利益而未能取得最佳结果时会出现。


Fractional Pareto efficiency模板:Anchor 部分帕累托效率

Fractional Pareto optimality is a strengthening of Pareto-optimality in the context of fair item allocation. An allocation of indivisible items is fractionally Pareto-optimal (fPO) if it is not Pareto-dominated even by an allocation in which some items are split between agents. This is in contrast to standard Pareto-optimality, which only considers domination by feasible (discrete) allocations.[11]

部分帕累托最优是在物品公平分配的背景下对帕累托最优的一个加强。 即使是在一个分配过程中,一些物品在主体之间被分配,如果一个不可分割的物品的分配不是受帕累托支配的,那么它不是部分帕累托最优(fPO)。这与标准的帕累托最优相反,因为它只考虑可行(离散)分配的控制。


As an example, consider an item allocation problem with two items, which Alice values at 3, 2 and George values at 4, 1. Consider the allocation giving the first item to Alice and the second to George, where the utility profile is (3,1).

作为一个示例,考虑一个有两个项的项分配问题,Alice 值为3,2,George 值为4,1。考虑将第一个项目分配给 Alice,第二个项目分配给 George,其中分配方案为(3,1)。


  • It is Pareto-optimal, since any other discrete allocation (without splitting items) makes someone worse-off.
  • However, it is not fractionally-Pareto-optimal, since it is Pareto-dominated by the allocation giving to Alice 1/2 of the first item and the whole second item, and the other 1/2 of the first item to George - its utility profile is (3.5, 2).
  • 它是一个帕累托最优,因为其他任何离散分配(在不分离物品的情况下)都会使得某个主体变差。
  • 但是,它不是部分帕累托最优的,因为它是受该分配帕累托支配的。它分配给了Alice第一个资源的一半和第二个资源的全部,分配给了George第一个资源的一半。它的分配方案是(3.5,2)。


Pareto-efficiency and welfare-maximization 帕累托效率和福利最大化

Suppose each agent i is assigned a positive weight ai. For every allocation x, define the welfare of x as the weighted sum of utilities of all agents in x, i.e.:

Suppose each agent i is assigned a positive weight ai. For every allocation x, define the welfare of x as the weighted sum of utilities of all agents in x, i.e.:

假设每个主体 i 被赋予一个正权重。对于每个分配 x ,将 x 的福利定义为 x 中所有主体的配置的加权和,即。:


[math]\displaystyle{ W_a(x) := \sum_{i=1}^n a_i u_i(x) }[/math].



Let xa be an allocation that maximizes the welfare over all allocations, i.e.:

假设是一个在所有分配中使福利最大化的分配,即:


[math]\displaystyle{ x_a \in \arg \max_{x} W_a(x) }[/math].



It is easy to show that the allocation xa is Pareto-efficient: since all weights are positive, any Pareto-improvement would increase the sum, contradicting the definition of xa.


很容易证明分配是帕累托有效的: 因为所有的权重都是正的,任何帕累托改进都会增加加权和,这与的定义相矛盾。


Japanese neo-Walrasian economist Takashi Negishi proved[12] that, under certain assumptions, the opposite is also true: for every Pareto-efficient allocation x, there exists a positive vector a such that x maximizes Wa. A shorter proof is provided by Hal Varian.[13]

Use in engineering 工程学上的应用

The notion of Pareto efficiency has been used in engineering.[14]:111–148 Given a set of choices and a way of valuing them, the Pareto frontier or Pareto set or Pareto front is the set of choices that are Pareto efficient. By restricting attention to the set of choices that are Pareto-efficient, a designer can make tradeoffs within this set, rather than considering the full range of every parameter.[15]:63–65

Example of a Pareto frontier. The boxed points represent feasible choices, and smaller values are preferred to larger ones. Point C is not on the Pareto frontier because it is dominated by both point A and point B. Points A and B are not strictly dominated by any other, and hence lie on the frontier.

Pareto frontier 帕累托边界

For a given system, the Pareto frontier or Pareto set is the set of parameterizations (allocations) that are all Pareto efficient. Finding Pareto frontiers is particularly useful in engineering. By yielding all of the potentially optimal solutions, a designer can make focused tradeoffs within this constrained set of parameters, rather than needing to consider the full ranges of parameters.[16]:399–412

A point [math]\displaystyle{ y^{\prime\prime} \in \mathbb{R}^m }[/math] is preferred to (strictly dominates) another point [math]\displaystyle{ y^{\prime} \in \mathbb{R}^m }[/math], written as [math]\displaystyle{ y^{\prime\prime} \succ y^{\prime} }[/math]. The Pareto frontier is thus written as:

我们假设标准值的最优方向是已知的。中的一个点优于中的另一个点,写作。因此,帕累托边界可以被描述为:


[math]\displaystyle{ P(Y) = \{ y^\prime \in Y: \; \{y^{\prime\prime} \in Y:\; y^{\prime\prime} \succ y^{\prime}, y^\prime \neq y^{\prime\prime} \; \} = \empty \}. }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ P(Y) = \{ y^\prime \in Y: \; \{y^{\prime\prime} \in Y:\; y^{\prime\prime} \succ y^{\prime}, y^\prime \neq y^{\prime\prime} \; \} = \empty \}.  }[/math]



Marginal rate of substitution 边际替代率

A significant aspect of the Pareto frontier in economics is that, at a Pareto-efficient allocation, the marginal rate of substitution is the same for all consumers. A formal statement can be derived by considering a system with m consumers and n goods, and a utility function of each consumer as [math]\displaystyle{ z_i=f^i(x^i) }[/math] where [math]\displaystyle{ x^i=(x_1^i, x_2^i, \ldots, x_n^i) }[/math] is the vector of goods, both for all i. The feasibility constraint is [math]\displaystyle{ \sum_{i=1}^m x_j^i = b_j }[/math] for [math]\displaystyle{ j=1,\ldots,n }[/math]. To find the Pareto optimal allocation, we maximize the Lagrangian:

经济学中,帕累托边界的一个重要方面是,在帕累托有效分配中,所有消费者的边际替代率是相同的。一个正式的陈述可以通过考虑一个有m个消费者和n个商品的系统,以及每个消费者的效用函数来推导出。在这个效用方程中,对所有的i,是商品的矢量。可行性约束为。为了找到帕累托最优分配,我们最大化拉格朗日函数:


[math]\displaystyle{ L_i((x_j^k)_{k,j}, (\lambda_k)_k, (\mu_j)_j)=f^i(x^i)+\sum_{k=2}^m \lambda_k(z_k- f^k(x^k))+\sum_{j=1}^n \mu_j \left( b_j-\sum_{k=1}^m x_j^k \right) }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ L_i((x_j^k)_{k,j}, (\lambda_k)_k, (\mu_j)_j)=f^i(x^i)+\sum_{k=2}^m \lambda_k(z_k- f^k(x^k))+\sum_{j=1}^n \mu_j \left( b_j-\sum_{k=1}^m x_j^k \right) }[/math]


where [math]\displaystyle{ (\lambda_k)_k }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ (\mu_j)_j }[/math] are the vectors of multipliers. Taking the partial derivative of the Lagrangian with respect to each good [math]\displaystyle{ x_j^k }[/math] for [math]\displaystyle{ j=1,\ldots,n }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ k=1,\ldots, m }[/math] and gives the following system of first-order conditions:

[math]\displaystyle{ \frac{\partial L_i}{\partial x_j^i} = f_{x^i_j}^1-\mu_j=0\text{ for }j=1,\ldots,n, }[/math]
[math]\displaystyle{ \frac{\partial L_i}{\partial x_j^i} = f_{x^i_j}^1-\mu_j=0\text{ for }j=1,\ldots,n, }[/math]

Thus, in a Pareto-optimal allocation, the marginal rate of substitution must be the same for all consumers.[17]:114

Thus, in a Pareto-optimal allocation, the marginal rate of substitution must be the same for all consumers.

因此,在帕累托最优分配中,所有消费者的边际替代率必须相同。

Use in biology 在生物学中的应用

Pareto optimisation has also been studied in biological processes.[26]:87–102 In bacteria, genes were shown to be either inexpensive to make (resource efficient) or easier to read (translation efficient). Natural selection acts to push highly expressed genes towards the Pareto frontier for resource use and translational efficiency. Genes near the Pareto frontier were also shown to evolve more slowly (indicating that they are providing a selective advantage).[27]

帕累托最优化在生物过程中也有研究。在细菌中,基因要么生成成本低廉(资源节约型) ,要么更容易被读取(翻译效率型)。自然选择将高表达的基因推向资源利用和翻译效率的帕累托边界。帕累托边界附近基因的进化速度也较慢(这表明它们提供了一种选择优势)。


Criticism 批判

It would be incorrect to treat Pareto efficiency as equivalent to societal optimization,[28]:358–364 as the latter is a normative concept that is a matter of interpretation that typically would account for the consequence of degrees of inequality of distribution.[29]:10–15 An example would be the interpretation of one school district with low property tax revenue versus another with much higher revenue as a sign that more equal distribution occurs with the help of government redistribution.[30]:95–132

把帕累托最优等同于社会优化是不正确的,因为后者是一个规范性概念,是一个典型的解释问题,可以解释分配不平等程度的后果。一个例子就是对一个财产税收入较低的学区和另一个财政收入较高的学区的解释,这表明在政府再分配的帮助下实现了更加平等的分配。


Pareto efficiency does not require a totally equitable distribution of wealth.[31]:222 An economy in which a wealthy few hold the vast majority of resources can be Pareto efficient. This possibility is inherent in the definition of Pareto efficiency; often the status quo is Pareto efficient regardless of the degree to which wealth is equitably distributed. A simple example is the distribution of a pie among three people. The most equitable distribution would assign one third to each person. However the assignment of, say, a half section to each of two individuals and none to the third is also Pareto optimal despite not being equitable, because none of the recipients could be made better off without decreasing someone else's share; and there are many other such distribution examples. An example of a Pareto inefficient distribution of the pie would be allocation of a quarter of the pie to each of the three, with the remainder discarded.[32]:18 The origin (and utility value) of the pie is conceived as immaterial in these examples. In such cases, whereby a "windfall" is gained that none of the potential distributees actually produced (e.g., land, inherited wealth, a portion of the broadcast spectrum, or some other resource), the criterion of Pareto efficiency does not determine a unique optimal allocation. Wealth consolidation may exclude others from wealth accumulation because of bars to market entry, etc.

帕累托最优并不需要完全公平的财富分配。一个少数富人拥有绝大多数资源的经济体系可以是帕累托有效的。这种可能性是帕累托最优的固有定义; 通常情况下,无论财富的公平分配程度如何,现状都是帕累托有效的。一个简单的例子是在三个人之间分配馅饼。最公平的分配将分配给每个人三分之一。--袁一博讨论)另一种分配是两个人各占半部分,第三个人不占分毫。然而,尽管这种分配并不公平,它也是帕累托最优的,因为没有一个受者能够在不减少其他人的份额的情况下得到更优的收益 该句换序翻译; 还有其他许多这样的分配例子。帕累托无效率的馅饼分配的一个例子是三者中的每一个分得馅饼的四分之一,剩下的部分丢弃。在这些示例中,馅饼的缘由(和实用价值)被认为是无关紧要的。在这种情况下,由于潜在的分配者都没有实际生产,却获得了“意外之财”(例如,土地、继承的财产、广播频谱的一部分或其他资源) ,帕累托最优的标准并不能决定唯一的一个最优分配。由于市场准入门槛等原因,财产整合可能会将他者排除在财产积累之外。


The liberal paradox elaborated by Amartya Sen shows that when people have preferences about what other people do, the goal of Pareto efficiency can come into conflict with the goal of individual liberty.[33]:92–94

阿马蒂亚·森(Amartya Sen)阐述的自由主义悖论表明,当人们对他人的行为有偏好时,帕累托最优的目标可能与个人自由的目标发生冲突。
