WJP Rule of Law Index 2020 7 Features of the WJP Rule of Law Index The World Justice Project (WJP) developed the WJP Rule of Law Index to serve as a quantitative tool for measuring the rule of law in practice. The Index’s methodology and comprehensive definition of the rule of law are the products of intensive consultation and vetting with academics, practitioners, and community leaders from more than 100 countries and jurisdictions and 17 professional disciplines.

The scores and rankings of the eight factors and 44 sub-factors New Data Anchored in Actual Experiences of the Index draw from two sources of data collected by the WJP: The Index is the only comprehensive of indicators on the rule of law that is based on primary data. The Index’s scores are 1. A General Population Poll (GPP) conducted by leading local built from the assessments of residents (1,000 respondents per polling , using a representative sample of 1,0001 country or jurisdiction) and local legal practitioners and experts, respondents in each country and jurisdiction; which ensure that the findings reflect the conditions experienced by actual people, including residents from marginalized sectors 2.

Comprehensive and Multi-Dimensional While other indices particular aspects of the rule of law, such as absence of corruption or rights, they do not yield a full picture of the of the rule of law. The WJP Rule of Law Index is the only global instrument that looks at the rule of law comprehensively.

Perspective of Ordinary People The WJP Rule of Law Index puts people at its core. It looks at a country’s adherence to the rule of law from the perspective of ordinary and their experiences with the rule of law in their . The Index examines practical, everyday situations, such as whether people can access public services and whether a dispute among neighbors can be resolved peacefully and cost-effectively by an independent adjudicator.

1 Due to small populations or obstacles to data collection in certain countries and jurisdictions, the sampling plan was adjusted in some cases. One adjustment was to decrease the sample size. For more information on specific countries and jurisdictions and sample sizes, see pages 166-168.

8 Defining the Rule of Law Effective rule of law reduces corruption, combats poverty and disease, and protects people from large and small. It is the for communities of justice, opportunity, and —underpinning development, accountable government, and respect for fundamental rights. Traditionally, the rule of law has been viewed as the domain of and . But everyday issues of safety, rights, justice, and affect us all; everyone is a stakeholder in the rule of law.

Although we societies, the rule of law is notoriously difficult to define and may not be aware of it, the rule of law is profoundly important— measure. A simple way of approaching it is to examine a set of and not just for lawyers or judges. Every sector of society is a outcomes that the rule of law brings to societies, each of which stakeholder in the rule of law. Below are a few examples: reflects one aspect of the complex concept of the rule of law. The WJP Rule of Law Index seeks to embody these outcomes within a Business Environment simple and coherent framework. Imagine an investor seeking to commit resources abroad. She would probably think twice before investing in a country The WJP Rule of Law Index captures adherence to the rule of where corruption is rampant, rights are ill-defined, law as defined by the WJP’s universal (see following and are difficult to enforce.

Adherence to the rule of law is essential to holding governments, The resulting set of indicators is also an effort to strike a balance businesses, civil society organizations, and communities between what scholars call a “thin” or minimalist conception accountable for protecting public health and the environment. of the rule of law that focuses on formal, procedural rules, and a “thick” conception that includes substantive characteristics, such as self-governance and various fundamental rights and freedoms. Striking this balance between “thin” and “thick” conceptions of the rule of law enables the Index to apply to different types of social and political systems, including those that lack many of the features that characterize democratic , while including sufficient substantive characteristics to render the rule of law as more than a of rules. The Index recognizes that a system of law that fails to respect core guaranteed under is at best “rule by law” and does not deserve to be called a rule of law system.

WJP Rule of Law Index 2020 9 The Four Universal Principles of the Rule of Law The World Justice Project defines the rule of law as a durable system of , institutions, norms, and community commitment that delivers:

Universal Principle One The government as well as private actors are Accountability accountable under the law.

The laws are clear, publicized, and stable; are Universal Principle Two applied evenly; and protect fundamental rights, Just Laws including the security of and , property, and human rights.

Universal Principle Three The processes by which the laws are Open Government enacted, administered, and enforced are accessible, fair, and efficient.

Universal Principle Four Justice is delivered timely by competent, ethical, and Accessible and Impartial independent representatives and neutrals who are accessible, have adequate resources, and reflect the makeup of the communities they serve.

The four universal principles are further developed in the following eight factors of the annual WJP Rule of Law Index: Constraints on Government Powers, Absence of Corruption, Open Government, Fundamental Rights, Order and Security, Regulatory Enforcement, Civil Justice, and Criminal Justice.

10 Conceptual Framework of the WJP Rule of Law Index The conceptual framework of the WJP Rule of Law Index is comprised of eight factors further disaggregated into 44 sub-factors. These factors and sub-factors are presented below and described in detail in the section that follows.

Factor One 1.1 Government powers are effectively limited by the Constraints on 1.2 Government powers are effectively limited by the 1.3 Government powers are effectively limited by independent auditing and review Government 1.4 Government officials are sanctioned for misconduct Powers 1.5 Government powers are subject to non-governmental checks 1.6 Transition of power is subject to the law

WJP Rule of Law Index 2020 11 Informal Justice and the Rule of Law The conceptual framework of the Index includes a ninth factor on informal justice that is not included in the Index’s aggregate scores and rankings. Informal justice systems often play a large role in countries where formal legal institutions are weak, remote, or perceived as ineffective. For this , the WJP has devoted significant effort to collecting data on informal justice through our surveys. Nonetheless, the complexities of these systems and the difficulties of systematically measuring their fairness and effectiveness make cross-country assessments extraordinarily challenging.

Factor 9: Informal Justice 9.1 Informal justice is timely and effective 9.2 Informal justice is impartial and free of improper influence 9.3 Informal justice respects and protects fundamental rights

24 Fundamental Rights Factor 4 recognizes that a system of that fails to respect core human rights established under international law is at best “rule by law,” and does not deserve to be called a rule of law system. Since there are many other indices that address human rights, and because it would be impossible for the Index to assess adherence to the full range of rights, this factor focuses on a relatively modest menu of rights that are firmly established under the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and are most closely related to rule of law concerns.

160 Behind the Numbers Methodology Snapshot: Steps to Produce the WJP Rule of Law Index The production of the WJP Rule of Law Index can be summarized in 11 steps:

The WJP developed the conceptual framework summarized in the Index’s nine factors 1 and 47 sub-factors, in consultation with academics, practitioners, and community leaders from around the world.

The Index team developed a set of five questionnaires based on the Index’s conceptual 2 framework to be administered to experts and the general public. Questionnaires were translated into several languages and adapted to reflect commonly used terms and expressions.

The Index team identified, on average, more than 300 potential local experts per country 3 to respond to the QRQs and engaged the services of leading local polling companies to implement the household surveys.

Polling companies conducted pilot tests of the GPP in consultation with the Index team, 4 and launched the final survey for full fieldwork.

The Index team sent the questionnaires to local experts and engaged in continual 5 interaction with them.

The Index team collected and mapped the data onto the eight factors and 44 sub-factors 6 with global comparability that make up the scores and rankings of the WJP Rule of Law Index. The Index scores and rankings exclude the ninth factor and its three sub-factors because they cannot be measured in a comparable manner globally.

The Index team constructed the final scores using a five-step process: 7 a. Codified the questionnaire items as numeric values b. Produced raw country scores by aggregating the responses from several individuals (experts and/or general public) c. Normalized the raw scores d. Aggregated the normalized scores into sub-factors and factors using simple averages e. Produced the normalized scores, which are rounded to two decimal points, and the final rankings

The data was subject to a series of tests to identify possible and errors. For example, 8 the Index team cross-checked all sub-factors against more than 70 third-party sources, including quantitative data and qualitative assessments drawn from local and international organizations.

A sensitivity analysis was conducted by the and Applied Unit of 9 the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre, in collaboration with the Index team, to assess the statistical reliability of the results.

To illustrate whether the rule of law in a country significantly changed over the 10 course of the past year, a measure of change over time was produced based on the annual difference in the country-level factor scores, the standard errors of these scores (estimated from a set of 100 bootstrap samples), and the results of the corresponding t-tests.

The data was organized into country reports, tables, and figures to acilitatef their 11 presentation and interpretation. For tables organized by income group, the WJP follows the World Bank income classifications.

162 Methodology Snapshot: Methodology Steps to Produce the WJP Rule of Law Index The WJP Rule of Law Index is the first attempt to systematically and comprehensively quantify the rule of law around the world and remains unique in its operationalization of rule of law dimensions into concrete questions.

The WJP Rule of Law Index 2020 report presents information on to include nationally representative polls. Toward this end, eight composite factors that are further disaggregated into 44 nationally representative polls have been conducted in 63 specific sub-factors (see page 11). Factor 9, Informal Justice, is countries and jurisdictions covered in the WJP Rule of Law Index included in the conceptual framework, but has been excluded 2020. Nationally representative polls will be conducted in the from the aggregated scores and rankings in order to provide remaining countries and jurisdictions in future editions of the meaningful cross-country comparisons. Index. Depending on the particular situation of each country or jurisdiction, one of three different polling is used: The country scores and rankings presented in this report are face-to-face, telephone, or online. The GPP has been carried out built from more than 500 variables drawn from the assessments in each country or jurisdiction every other year. The polling data of more than 130,000 and 4,000 legal practitioners used in this year’s report was collected during the fall of 2019 (for and experts in 128 countries and jurisdictions, making it the most 10 countries and jurisdictions), fall of 2018 (for 70 countries and accurate portrayal of the factors that contribute to shaping the jurisdictions), fall of 2017 (for 45 countries and jurisdictions), the rule of law in a country. fall of 2016 (for four countries and jurisdictions), the fall of 2014 (for three countries and jurisdictions), the fall of 2012 (for one Data Sources country), and the fall of 2011 (for two countries or jurisdictions). To present an image that accurately portrays the rule of law Detailed information regarding the country or jurisdiction as experienced by ordinary people, each score of the Index is coverage ( covered or nationally representative), the polling calculated using a large number of questions drawn from two companies contracted to administer the questionnaire, and the original data sources collected by the World Justice Project in polling methodology employed in each of the 128 countries and each country or jurisdiction: a General Population Poll (GPP) and jurisdictions is presented on page 166. a series of Qualified Respondents’ Questionnaires (QRQs). These two data sources collect up-to-date firsthand information that is The QRQs complement the household data with assessments not available at the global level, and constitute the world’s most from in-country practitioners and academics with expertise in comprehensive dataset of its kind. They capture the experiences civil and commercial law; constitutional law, , and and perceptions of ordinary citizens and in-country professionals criminal law; labor law; and public health.

However, the World Justice Project’s goal was to update its methodology

3 Due to small populations or obstacles to data collection in certain countries, the sampling plan was adjusted in some cases. One adjustment was to decrease the sample size. For more information on specific countries and sample sizes, see pages 166-168.

WJP Rule of Law Index 2020 201 About the World Justice Project

The World Justice Project (WJP) is an independent, multidisciplinary organization working to create knowledge, build awareness, and stimulate action to advance the rule of law worldwide. Effective rule of law reduces corruption, combats poverty and disease, and protects people from injustices large and small. It is the foundation for communities of justice, opportunity, and peace—underpinning development, accountable government, and respect for fundamental rights.
