The Democracy Index published by the Economist Group

Neoliberal corporate media are defining what is to be considered “democratic”? You don’t have to drink this Kool-Aid.

Yes i know it's not perfect and the exact positions might not be completely accurate but I still think the overall picture it paints it useful. Maybe we aren't the most democratic countries but we're defently democratic. You can check this whit whatever source you happen to prefere

The only thing it's useful for is an approximate answer to the question "Who does the Economist Group want to lionize?"
