      The authors investigate finite models of the fragmentary set theory Extensionality \(+\) Powerset Axiom. In such models there is no empty set and the axiom of choice looses its meaning in view of the main result of this paper: A family of sets S has a choice set, iff its intersection \(\cap S\) exists, in which case the singleton set \(\cap S\) is the unique choice set of S.
