Abstract
We consider an extension of PROMETHEE II for multicriteria ordered clustering. The method is based on a divisive hierarchical clustering algorithm. A new property of the net flow score is proved and then used to divide existing clusters. The method is illustrated on two applications: the ranking of management masters by the financial times and the human development index.
