Democracy Index

The Democracy Index is a measure used to evaluate the state of democracy in countries around the world. Developed by the Economist Intelligence Unit, it assesses nations based on factors like electoral processes, civil liberties, political participation, and government transparency. Countries are rated on a scale from 0 to 10, with higher scores indicating stronger democratic practices. This index helps researchers, policymakers, and the public understand how well a country upholds democratic principles and where improvements may be needed. It provides valuable insights into global democracy trends and challenges.
