Motivated by modal semantics induced by majority games, we consider the class of threshold functions. It was shown by L. Hellerstein that this class is characterizable by relational constraints (or equivalently, by functional equations), but that there is no characterization by means of finitely many constraints. In this paper, we present a complete classification of classes of threshold functions induced by Boolean clones, into whether they are characterizable by finitely many relational constraints. Moreover we provide sets of constraints characterizing each of such classes.
