Abstract
In this book we have first presented a short introduction into some central theoretical and application-oriented concepts of multicriteria optimization. The variety of methods found in the MCDM literature cannot simply be reduced considering the critical discussion such that the question concerning the choice of a method for solving an MCDM problem would not arise. Neither an absolutely questionable demand for a descriptive orientation of MCDM methods nor a consideration of different concepts of rationality seems, in general, to suffice for clearly rejecting single methods. For instance, this is because other concepts of rationality or other justifications argue in favor of the corresponding method.
