The measure of Quality of Life (QoL) is still a topic widely discussed in literature.

In this paper, “Il Sole 24 Ore” and BoD-DEA methods are compared in order to show how different types of normaliza- tion and aggregation significantly influence the results making these rankings very fragile and questionable.
