On the constructive and other approaches in Decision Aiding

چکیده
This paper was motivated by the discussion held at the 2nd YMCDA meeting on the theme “What is a constructive approach in MCDA?”. On the one hand, it intends to organise some thoughts on the differences between normative, descriptive, prescriptive and constructive approaches, as well as their relation (or lack of relation) with MCDA methods. On the other hand, it intends to discuss many of the questions that occur to MCDA researchers (not necessarily the younger ones!) about such issues.
