      Two allocation models are studied. The first model concerns the problem of allocating an infinitely divisible commodity among agents with single-dipped preferences. In the second one the author considers the allocation of an indivisible object to a group of agents. Four decision rules are discussed: Pareto optimal, strategy-proofness, coalitional strategy-proofness and weak-bossines (in terms of welfare). A decision mechanism is strategy-proof if no agent ever can gain by misrepresenting his preferences, irrespective of the preferences announced by the other agents. A strengthening of strategy-proofness is the coalitional strategy-proofness: no group or coalition of agents can ever benefit from misrepresenting their preferences.
