Policy Performance and Governance Capacities in the OECD and EU (2017)

Summary:

Social inequality, climate change, global migration, international terrorism, and the consequences of the worldwide economic and financial crisis remain major political projects on all governments' agendas.
At the same time, however, opportunities to engage in long-term-oriented policy are compromised in many countries due to the advances being made by nationalist populism.
In this regard, the fact that the international community is drifting apart on issues of democracy quality and the rule of law is alarming. These are the summary findings of this year's edition of the Sustainable Governance Indicators (SGI), which assesses governance and reforms in all EU and OECD states on the basis of 136 indicators.
