This scholarly article examines the ‘Rochester School’ creation of PPT through William H Riker and the contributions the school has provided for modelling voting, agendas, game, and political theory. ^[1]

Other than the theoretical modelling, it offers real-world examples in which PPT concepts can be applied and explains using the proofs it has created. ^[2]

This academic article challenges and takes a critical approach towards PPT and argues against the effectiveness of PPT because its basis rests on inherent rationality and the PPT notion that game theory modelling has solid empirical testing as proof of its function and usefulness is consequently flawed. ^[3]

It offers a comparison with other normative theories and expands on its usage in locating the outcomes in democratic processes. ^[4]

It raises some findings through a conducted survey and analyses the possibilities in which PPT may become suited to public law and the modelling of public institutions. ^[5]
