Related indicators

Aggregated V-Dem country expert ratings whether political power was equally distributed between wealthy, average and poorer people. Lower values indicate power distribution in favor of wealthy people, higher values suggest equal distribution of power.

Coding rules

Ordinal ratings were aggregated to interval scale applying V-Dem's measurement model (Pemstein et al. 2021). Experts were asked "Is political power distributed according to socioeconomic position?" and the ordinal wordings of the question were (Coppedge et al. 2021, 204):

  • 0: Wealthy people enjoy a virtual monopoly on political power. Average and poorer people have almost no influence.
  • 1: Wealthy people enjoy a dominant hold on political power. People of average income have little say. Poorer people have essentially no influence.
  • 2: Wealthy people have a very strong hold on political power. People of average or poorer income have some degree of influence but only on issues that matter less for wealthy people.
  • 3: Wealthy people have more political power than others. But people of average income have almost as much influence and poor people also have a significant degree of political power.
  • 4: Wealthy people have no more political power than those whose economic status is average or poor. Political power is more or less equally distributed across economic groups.
