De vredesindex
De vredesindex toont de vreedzaamheid van de verschillende landen van de wereld. 23 verschillende indicatoren (zowel kwalitatief als kwantitatief) in 144 landen worden geevalueerd, waaronder: niveau van democratie, criminaliteit en respect voor de mensenrechten.
http://www.visionofhumanity.org/gpi/...s/rankings.php Het bijhorend rapport werd gepresenteerd in Londen door het 'instituut voor Economie en vrede'. Een van de conclusies is dat de economische crisis de gewelddadige conflicten verergerd heeft, voor meer politieke instabiliteit heeft gezorgd en de mensenrechtenschendingen heeft verhoogd in de meeste landen. Op 5 juni 2009 werd het rapport (2009) aan de Verenigde naties in New York gepresenteerd. De top 5 meest vreedzame landen 1. Nieuw Zeeland 2. Denemarken 3. Noorwegen 3. Ijsland 4.

UNHCR Statistical Yearbook 2007. Close Political instability 1.25 Political instability Qualitative assessment of level of political instability. Ranked 1-5 (very low-very high) by EIU analysts Close | More information Close Window Political instability This indicator addresses the degree to which political institutions are sufficiently stable to support the needs of its citizens, businesses and overseas investors. It is a composite indicator based on the scores, 1 to 5 for each of the following issues: What is the risk of significant social unrest during the next two years? How clear, established, and accepted are constitutional mechanisms for the orderly transfer of power from one government to another? How likely is it that an opposition party or group will come to power and cause a significant deterioration in business operating conditions? Is excessive power concentrated or likely to be concentrated, in the executive so that executive authority lacks accountability and possesses excessive discretion? Is there a risk that international disputes/tensions will negatively affect the economy and/or polity? Close Window Respect for human rights 1.5 Respect for human rights A qualitative measure of the level of political terror through an analysis of Amnesty International's Yearbook. Close | More information Close Window Respect for human rights Mark Gibney and Matthew Dalton, from the University of North Carolina, have coded countries on a 1 to 5 scale according to their level of terror the previous year, based on the description provided in the Amnesty International Yearbook (in this case the 2007 Yearbook, referring to 2006 data). There is an additional index coded on a 1 to 5 scale based on a close analysis of Country Reports from the US State Department. Amnesty International scores have been used where available, with US State Department scores used to fill missing data. - Level 1 is scored if the country operates under a secure rule of law. People are not imprisoned for their views and torture is rare or exceptional. Politically-motivated murders are extremely rare; - Level 2 points that there is a limited amount of imprisonment for non-violent political activity. However, few persons are affected and torture and beatings are exceptional. Politically-motivated murder is rare; - Level 3. Imprisonment for political activity is more extensive. Politically-motivated executions or other political murders and brutality are common. Unlimited detention, with or without a trial, for political views is also commonplace; - Level 4. The practices of level 3 affect a larger portion of the population and murders, disappearances and torture are a common part of life. In spite of its pervasiveness, on this level political terror affects those who interest themselves in politics; - Level 5. The terrors characteristic of level 4 countries encompass the whole population at level 5. The leaders of these societies place no limits on the means or thoroughness with which they pursue personal or ideological goals. Close Window Potential for terriorist acts 2 Potential for terriorist acts Qualitative assessment of the potential for terrorist acts. Ranked 1-5 (very low-very high) by EIU analysts Close Number of homicides per 100,000 people 1 Number of homicides per 100,000 people Intentional homicide refers to death deliberately inflicted on a person by another person, including infanticide. Close | More information Close Window Number of homicides per 100,000 people Number of homicides per 100,000 people This indicator has been compiled using UNODC figures (10th, 9th and 8th Survey of Criminal Trends) rather than Interpol data. The figures refer to the total number of penal code offences or their equivalent, but excluding minor road traffic and other petty offences, brought to the attention of the police or other law enforcement agencies and recorded by one of those agencies. The latest Interpol figures used are for 1998/99 and the consensus among experts on the analysis of criminal justice is that the UNODC figures are more reliable - they are compiled from a standard questionnaire sent to national officials via the UN statistical office. However, the UN acknowledges that international comparisons of crime statistics are beset by methodological difficulties: * Different definitions for specific crime types: The category in which any incident of victimization is recorded relies on the legal definition of crime in any country. Should that definition be different, which is often the case, comparisons will not be made of exactly the same crime type. This is particularly the case in crimes that require some discretion from a police officer or relevant authority when they are identified. For example, the definitional difference between serious or common assault in different legal jurisdictions may be different, and this will be reflected in the total number of incidents recorded. * Different levels of reporting and traditions of policing: This relates closely to levels of development in a society, most clearly reflected in accessibility to the police. Factors such as the number of police stations or telephones impact upon reporting levels. The level of insurance coverage in a community is also a key indicator of the likelihood of citizens approaching the police as their claim for compensation may require such notification. In addition, in societies where the police are or have been mistrusted by the population, most specifically during periods of authoritarian rule, reporting levels are likely to be lower than in cases where the police are regarded as important members of the community. * Different social, economic and political contexts: Comparing crime data from societies that are fundamentally different may ignore key issues present in the society that impact upon levels of reporting. For example, different social norms in some countries may make it difficult for women to report cases of rape or sexual abuse, while in others, women are encouraged to come forward. The level of insurance coverage in a community is also a key indicator of the likelihood of citizens approaching the police as their claim for compensation may require such notification. In addition, in societies where the police are or have been mistrusted by the population, most specifically during periods of authoritarian rule, reporting levels are likely to be lower than in cases where the police are regarded as important members of the community. The International Crime Victim Survey (ICVS) is perhaps a more sensitive and accurate measure of crime - and arguably offers a picture of how the public views the criminal justice system - but is currently limited to a few, mainly industrialised, countries so these data are not included. Where data are not present, The Economist Intelligence Unit's analysts have estimated figures based on their deep knowledge of each country. All the figures for homicides per 100,000 people have been banded as: 1=0-1.9, 2=2-5.9, 3=6-9.9, 4=10-19.9, 5= >20 Close Window Level of violent crime 2 Level of violent crime Qualitative assessment of the level of violent crime.

In almost all cases the original source is the national prison administration of the country concerned, or else the Ministry responsible for the prison administration. The International Centre for Prison Studies warns that because prison population rates (per 100,000 of the national population) are based on estimates of the national population they should not be regarded as precise. Comparability is compromised by different practice in different countries, for example with regard to whether all pre-trial detainees and juveniles are held under the authority of the prison administration, and also whether the prison administration is responsible for psychiatrically ill offenders and offenders being detained for treatment for alcoholism and drug addiction. People held in custody are usually omitted from national totals if they are not under the authority of the prison administration. The data have been banded: 1=0-69, 2=70-139, 3=140-209, 4=210-279, 5=> 280 Close Window Number of internal security officers and police 100,000 people 2 Number of internal security officers and police 100,000 people Refers to the civil police force as distinct from national guards or local militia Close | More information Close Window Number of internal security officers and police 100,000 people The original figures have been taken from UNODC, 10th, 9th and 8th UN Survey of Criminal Trends and Operations of Criminal Justice Systems (UNCJS) and refer to the civil police force as distinct from national guards or local militia. Where there are gaps, EIU analysts have filled the gaps and clustered data in bands: 1 = 0-199, 2 = 200-399, 3 = 400-599, 4 = 600-799, 5 = > 800 Close Window Military expenditure as a percentage of GDP 1 Military expenditure as a percentage of GDP Cash outlays of central or federal government to meet the costs of national armed forces - including strategic, land, naval, air, command, administration and support forces as well as paramilitary forces, customs forces and border guards if these are trained and equipped as a military force.
