Abstract :
In this paper we analyze the consensus in groups of decision makers that rank alternatives by means of weak orders. We have introduced the class of weighted Kemeny distances on weak orders for taking into account where the disagreements occur, and we have analyzed the properties of the associated consensus measures.
