    Duncan Black (May 23, 1908 - January 14, 1991) was responsible for unearthing the work of many early political scientists, including Charles Dodgson, and was responsible for the Black electoral system, a variant upon the Condorcet method whereby, in the absence of a Condorcet winner (e.g. due to a cycle), the Borda winner is chosen. He was born in Motherwell, Scotland, raised in Tayvallich in Argyll Scotland, then educated at Glasgow, Scotland and Dundee, Scotland.
