The '''''Democracy Index''''' published by the British [[media company]] [[Economist Group|the Economist Group]] is an index measuring the quality of [[democracy]] across the world. This [[Quantitative research|quantitative]] and [[comparative politics|comparative]] assessment is centrally concerned with democratic rights and democratic institutions. The methodology for assessing democracy used in this democracy index is according to the [[Economist Intelligence Unit]] which is part of the Economist Group, a UK-based private company, which publishes the weekly newspaper ''[[The Economist]]''. 

The index is based on 60 indicators grouped into five categories, measuring [[Pluralism (political philosophy)|pluralism]], [[civil liberties]], and [[political culture]]. In addition to a numeric score and a ranking, the index categorizes each country into one of four regime types: [[Liberal democracy|full democracies]], [[Illiberal democracy|flawed democracies]], [[hybrid regime]]s, and [[authoritarian regimes]]. The first Democracy Index report was published in 2006. Reports were published every two years until 2010 and annually thereafter. The index includes 167 countries and territories, of which 165 are [[sovereign states]] and 164 are [[Member states of the United Nations|UN member states]]. Other [[democracy indices]] with similar assessments of the state of democracy<ref name="Geissel Kneuer Lauth 2016 pp. 571–579">{{cite journal | last1=Geissel | first1=Brigitte | last2=Kneuer | first2=Marianne | last3=Lauth | first3=Hans-Joachim | title=Measuring the quality of democracy: Introduction | journal=International Political Science Review | publisher=Sage Publications | volume=37 | issue=5 | year=2016 | issn=0192-5121| jstor=26556872 | pages=571–579 | doi=10.1177/0192512116669141 | s2cid=151808737 | url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/26556872 | access-date=2023-04-03| url-access=subscription }}</ref> include the [[V-Dem Democracy Indices]] or [[Bertelsmann Transformation Index]].

==Methodology==
{{Democracy}}
As described in the report, the ''Democracy Index'' produces a  [[Weighted arithmetic mean|weighted average]] based on the answers to 60 questions, or indicators,{{which|date=May 2025}} each one with either two or three permitted answers. Most answers are experts' assessments. Some answers are provided by public-opinion surveys from the respective countries. In the case of countries for which survey results are missing, survey results for similar countries and expert assessments are used in order to fill in gaps.<ref>{{cite book |title=Democracy Index 2023 – Age of conflict |date=15 February 2024 |publisher=The Economist Intelligence Unit |pages=65–77 |url=https://www.eiu.com/n/campaigns/democracy-index-2023 |access-date=17 November 2024}}</ref>

The questions are grouped into five categories:
* [[electoral process]] and [[Pluralism (political theory)|pluralism]] (12 indicators)
* functioning of government (14 indicators)
* [[Public participation (decision making)|political participation]] (9 indicators)
* [[political culture]] (8 indicators)
* [[civil liberties]] (17 indicators)

Each answer is converted to a score, either 0 or 1, or for the three-answer questions, 0, 0.5 or 1. With the exceptions mentioned below, within each category, the scores are added, multiplied by ten, and divided by the total number of questions within the category. There are a few modifying dependencies, which are explained much more precisely than the main rule procedures. In a few cases, an answer yielding zero for one question voids another question; e.g., if the elections for the national legislature and head of government are not considered free (question 1), then the next question, "''Are elections... fair?''", is not considered, but automatically scored zero. Likewise, there are a few questions considered so important that a low score on them yields a penalty on the total score sum for their respective categories, namely:

# "Whether national [[election]]s are free and fair";
# "The security of [[Voting|voters]]";
# "The influence of foreign powers on government";
# "The capability of the [[Civil service|civil servant]]s to implement policies".

The five category indices, which are listed in the report, are then averaged to find the overall score for a given country. Finally, the score, [[rounding|rounded]] to two [[decimals]], decides the regime-type classification of the country.

The report discusses other indices of democracy, as defined, e.g., by [[Freedom House]], and argues for some of the choices made by the team from the [[Economist Intelligence Unit]]. In this comparison, a higher emphasis is placed on the public opinion and attitudes, as measured by  [[Survey (human research)|survey]]s, but on the other hand, economic living-standards are not weighted as one criterion of democracy (as seemingly some other investigators have done).<ref name="index2010" /><ref name="index2006" />

The report is widely cited in the international press as well as in [[peer-review]]ed academic journals.<ref name="a3"/>

== Definitions ==
* [[Liberal democracy|Full democracies]] are countries where civil liberties and fundamental political freedoms are not only respected but also reinforced by a political culture conducive to the thriving of democratic principles. These nations have a valid system of governmental checks and balances, an independent judiciary whose decisions are enforced, governments that function adequately, and diverse and independent media. These nations have only limited problems in democratic functioning.<ref name="index2015" />
* [[Defective democracy|Flawed democracies]] are countries where elections are fair and free and basic civil liberties are honoured, but may have issues (e.g. media freedom infringement and minor suppression of political opposition and critics). These countries can have significant faults in other democratic aspects, including an underdeveloped political culture, low levels of participation in politics, and issues in the functioning of governance.<ref name="index2015" />
* [[Hybrid regime]]s are countries with regular [[electoral fraud]], preventing them from being fair and free democracies. These countries commonly have non-independent judiciaries, widespread corruption, and weak rule of law. Political opponents and the media face harassment and pressure from governments. These countries have a less-developed political culture, lower levels of participation in politics, and more pronounced issues in the functioning of governance compared to flawed democracies.<ref name="index2015" />
* [[Authoritarian regime]]s are countries where political pluralism is nonexistent or severely limited. These nations are often [[absolute monarchies]] or [[dictatorship]]s and may have some conventional institutions of democracy but with meagre significance. Infringements and abuses of civil liberties are commonplace, elections (if they take place) are not fair or free (especially [[sham election]]s), the media is often state-owned or controlled by groups associated with the ruling regime, the judiciary is not independent, and censorship and suppression of governmental criticism are commonplace.<ref name="index2015" />

== By regime type ==
The following table indicates the number of nations and the percentage of world population for each type of regime. Some [[microstate]]s are not considered in the calculation.

The Democracy Index does not cover some [[member states of the United Nations|UN member states]], namely [[Andorra]], [[Antigua and Barbuda]], [[the Bahamas]], [[Barbados]], [[Belize]], [[Brunei]], [[Dominica]], the [[Federated States of Micronesia]], [[Grenada]], [[Kiribati]], [[Liechtenstein]], the [[Maldives]], the [[Marshall Islands]], [[Monaco]], [[Nauru]], [[Palau]], [[Saint Kitts and Nevis]], [[Saint Lucia]], [[Saint Vincent and the Grenadines]], [[Samoa]], [[San Marino]], [[São Tomé and Príncipe]], [[Seychelles]], [[Solomon Islands]], [[Somalia]], [[South Sudan]], [[Tonga]], [[Tuvalu]], and [[Vanuatu]].<ref name="index2023">{{Cite web |date=2024 |title=Democracy Index 2023: Age of conflict |url=https://pages.eiu.com/rs/753-RIQ-438/images/Democracy-Index-2023-Final-report.pdf |website=[[Economist Intelligence Unit]] |page=3 |language=en-GB}}</ref><ref name="UNmembers">{{cite web |title=Member States |url=https://www.un.org/en/about-us/member-states |website=UN |publisher=United Nations |access-date=27 April 2024}}</ref>

== Recent changes ==
In 2016, the United States was downgraded from a full democracy to a flawed democracy;<ref name="SLN-20180131" /> its score, which had been declining for some years, crossed the threshold from 8.05 in 2015 to 7.98 in 2016. The report stated that this was caused by myriad factors dating back to at least the late 1960s which have eroded Americans' trust in governmental institutions.<ref name="a1" /><ref name="a2" /> Nigeria was also upgraded from an authoritarian regime to a hybrid regime.

The 2017 ''Democracy Index'' registered, at the time, the worst year for global democracy since 2010–11. Asia was the region with the largest decline since 2016. Venezuela was downgraded from a hybrid regime to an authoritarian regime. In China, [[Xi Jinping]], [[General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party]] (CCP), further entrenched his power by writing his contribution to the CCP's [[Ideology of the Chinese Communist Party|ideology]], dubbed [[Xi Jinping Thought]], into the party's constitution. Moldova was downgraded from a flawed democracy to a hybrid regime as a result of problematic elections. By contrast, Armenia was re-upgraded from an authoritarian regime to a hybrid regime as a result of constitutional changes that shifted power from the presidency to parliament.<ref name="index2017" /> The Gambia was upgraded again from an authoritarian regime to a hybrid regime after [[Yahya Jammeh]], who was president from 1996 to 2017, was defeated by [[Adama Barrow]], an opposition candidate in the [[2016 Gambian presidential election|2016 presidential elections]].

In 2019, France, Portugal and Chile were upgraded from flawed democracies to full democracies. This was not a new experience for the former two, which suffered from the [[European debt crisis|eurozone crisis]] many years before. By contrast, Malta was downgraded from a full democracy to a flawed democracy. Thailand and Albania were upgraded from hybrid regimes to flawed democracies.<ref name="index2019" /> Algeria was upgraded again from an authoritarian regime to a hybrid regime.

In 2020, Taiwan was upgraded from flawed democracy to full democracy following judicial reforms,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4118874|title=Taiwan most democratic country in East Asia: The Economist|date=3 February 2021|access-date=8 February 2021}}</ref> and soared to 11th (8.94) position from its previous position at 33rd (7.73), surpassing [[Switzerland]], which ranked 12th. Japan and South Korea were also upgraded again to full democracies, while France and Portugal were once again relegated to flawed democracies. Hong Kong was downgraded from a flawed democracy to a hybrid regime. Algeria was downgraded again from a hybrid regime to an authoritarian regime. The Economist Intelligence Unit noted that democracy "was dealt a major blow in 2020".<ref name="index2020" /> Almost 70% of countries covered by the ''Democracy Index'' recorded a decline in their overall score, as most of them imposed [[COVID-19 lockdowns|lockdowns]] and other restrictions in response to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]], in addition to some arresting journalists and citizens accused of spreading [[COVID-19 misinformation]]. The global average score fell to its lowest level since the index began in 2006.

In 2021, both the global and regional average scores continued downward trends, with the exception of the Central and Eastern Europe region. Spain and Chile were downgraded from full democracies to flawed democracies, while Ecuador, Mexico, Paraguay, and Tunisia were downgraded from flawed democracies to hybrid regimes. Haiti, Lebanon, and Kyrgyzstan were downgraded from hybrid regimes to authoritarian regimes. In addition, Moldova, Montenegro, and North Macedonia were upgraded from hybrid regimes to flawed democracies, whereas Mauritania was upgraded from authoritarian to hybrid regime. For the first time, North Korea was displaced as the lowest-ranked state in the Democracy Index, with Myanmar and Afghanistan recording scores lower than North Korea due to [[2021 Myanmar coup d'état|a military coup]] and the [[2021 Taliban offensive]] and subsequent takeover of government respectively.

In 2022, the global average score stagnated, as lifting of COVID-related restrictions was largely canceled out by other negative developments globally.

In 2023, the global average score deteriorated further, with most declines occurring in authoritarian and hybrid regimes, with the former becoming more entrenched and the latter struggling to democratize. The threshold for each color has also been changed from greater than the integer to greater than or equal to.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.economistgroup.com/group-news/economist-intelligence/eius-2023-democracy-index-conflict-and-polarisation-drive-a-new-low-for | title=The Economist Group – EIU's 2023 Democracy Index: Conflict and polarisation drive a new low for global democracy }}</ref>

In 2024, the global average once again trended downwards, largely due to continued and expanded crackdowns in dissent in authoritarian regimes. The average score for democracies remained the same, despite 2024 being a major election year. One of the most notable declines was South Korea's downgrade from a full democracy to a flawed democracy, mainly as a result of the political crisis caused by President [[Yoon Suk Yeol]]'s [[2024 South Korean martial law crisis|declaration of martial law]] in December. Romania's score fell by 0.46 points to 5.99 after controversially cancelling [[2024 Romanian presidential election|a presidential election]], making it the first [[EU member state]] to be classified as a hybrid regime. The Czech Republic's score rose from 7.97 to 8.08, which reupgraded it to a full democracy.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2025-02-27 |title=EIU's 2024 Democracy Index: trend of global democratic decline and strengthening authoritarianism continues through 2024 |url=https://www.eiu.com/n/democracy-index-2024/ |access-date=2025-04-08 |website=Economist Intelligence Unit |language=en-GB}}</ref>

In 2025, [[2025 in Moldova|Moldova]] was downgraded to a hybrid regime while [[2025 in Angola|Angola]] fell into the ranks of the authoritarian.  [[2025 in Romania|Romania]], [[2025 in Paraguay|Paraguay]], [[2025 in Malawi|Malawi]] and [[2025 in Senegal|Senegal]] rejoined the ranks of flawed democracies while [[2025 in France|France]] was upgraded to a full democracy.  The [[2025 in the United States|United States of America]] lost 0.2 overall to remain a flawed democracy, while most other democracies held their ground or (like France) improved slightly. Other countries like [[2025 in Canada|Canada]], [[2025 in Ireland|Ireland]], [[2025 in Finland|Finland]], and [[2025 in Denmark|Denmark]] also saw their score rise up too while remaining full democracies after many years of a falling score.
