The World Democracy Index
The World Democracy Index is a tool that measures the level of democracy in countries around the world. It evaluates factors like how free and fair elections are, the functioning of government, political participation, civil liberties, and respect for the rule of law. Countries are then classified into categories such as full democracies, flawed democracies, hybrid regimes, or authoritarian regimes. This index helps people understand how open and democratic different nations are, providing a snapshot of political freedoms and governance quality globally. It aims to promote awareness and encourage democratic development worldwide.
