Joint analysis of Structural Models and Performance: Merging Clustering and Composite Indicators in the Analysis of Europe 2020 strategy (Tommaso Rondinella & Elena Grimaccia).This volume discusses the many recent significant developments, and identifies important problems, in the field of social indicators. In the last ten years the methodology of multivariate analysis and synthetic indicators construction significantly developed. In particular, starting from the classical theory of composite indicators many interesting approaches have been developed to overcome the weaknesses of composites. This volume focuses on these recent developments in synthesizing indicators, and more generally, in quantifying complex phenomena.
