This is half way between a straight average and strict multiplication, meaning the average of the two. It is thus a compromise between the two most well known aggregation formulas in the literature, both allowing partial "compensation" in one sub-component for lack of polyarchy in the others, but also punishing countries not strong in one sub-component according to the "weakest link" argument. The aggregation is done at the level of Dahl’s subcomponents with the one exception of the non-electoral component. The index is aggregated using this formula: @@ -79,7 +55,7 @@ tables: All code and data is available [on GitHub](https://github.com/owid/notebooks/tree/main/BastianHerre/democracy). presentation: title_variant: V-Dem - # attribution_short: V-Dem + attribution_short: V-Dem topic_tags: - Democracy faqs:
