The importance of macroeconomic variables to set a preferences ranking in the EU countries

In crisis times is very important to use all available macroeconomic information in order to set up rankings among different countries. The objectives of this work are, one hand, to show which the most influential variables are in current crisis and to establish if there is dependence between peripheral and no peripheral countries. And, the other hand, to offer a partial and complete order between the UE(11) countries through multicrieteria decision techniques.
