Failed States

Failed State is a straightforward term. The Wikipedia is being evasive about it; that is why they do not give a link to their List of Failed States. They call it their List of Countries by Failed States Index. The Wiki can be very good, until the agenda cuts in. Then it is different. They still pretend to be unbiased so you need to Read critically; what Marxists call Deconstruction.

You can look at the listing, currently in 2022, called the List of Countries by Fragile States Index you might see connections between failure and who rules them. The best are run by by White Men. The worst are run by Blacks. Some with big problems are being attacked by America because they have oil, Venezuela & Syria being examples.

 

You might even go on to ask if things are better since we stopped running these places, whether Decolonization was a very good thing as any Marxist friends would say. Of course now that Decolonization is an accomplished fact, one that they strove mightily for, results are surfacing. People are voting with their feet, they are coming to live with us, whether we want them or not. Marxists incited Decolonization. Now Marxists are inciting Immigration, legal or Illegal. Their policy is Ethnic Fouling in Western Civilization to be followed by Genocide. The perpetrators? Try God's Chosen People or maybe just the Zionist crazies full of Paranoia & hate. They run the Stolen Land, calling it Israel.

Failed State ex Wiki
"A failed state is a state perceived as having failed at some of the basic conditions and responsibilities of a sovereign government. There is no general consensus on the definition of a failed state. The definition of a failed state according to the Fund for Peace is often used to characterize a state with the following characteristics :

Common characteristics of a failing state include a central government so weak or ineffective that it has little practical control over much of its territory; non-provision of public services; widespread corruption and criminality; refugees and involuntary movement of populations; and sharp economic decline.[1]

The level of government control required to avoid being considered a failed state varies considerably amongst authorities.[2] Furthermore, the declaration that a state has "failed" is generally controversial and, when made authoritatively, may carry significant geopolitical consequences.[2]................................

Failed State Index
 The Failed States Index published its ninth annual report in 2013, prepared by the Fund for Peace and published by Foreign Policy Magazine. The Index categorizes states in four categories, with variations in each category. The Alert category is in dark red, Warning in orange, Stable in yellow and Sustainable is green.

The FSI total score is out of 120, and in 2013 there were 178 states making the ranking. There are three groupings: social, economic and political with overall twelve indicators.

  1. Mounting Demographic Pressures
  2. Massive Movement of Refugees or Internally Displaced Persons
  3. Vengeance Seeking Group Grievance
  4. Chronic and Sustained Human Flight
  5. Uneven Economic Development
  6. Poverty, Sharp or Severe Economic Decline
  7. Legitimacy of the State
  8. Progressive Deterioration of Public Services
  9. Violation of Human Rights and Rule of Law
  10. Security Apparatus
  11. Rise of Factionalized Elites
  12. Intervention of External Actors

Each indicator is out of 10, adding up to a total of 120. However, in order to add up to 120, the indicator scores are rounded up-or-down to the nearest one decimal place.[25] In the 2013 Index, Somalia ranked number one for the 6th consecutive year, scoring a near 10/10 in almost all categories.[26]

While it is important to note that the FSI is used in many researches and makes the categorization of states more pragmatic, it often receives much criticism due to several reasons. Firstly, it does not include the Human Development Index to reach the final score, but instead focuses on institutions to measure what are often also considered human aspects for development. Secondly, it parallels fragility or vulnerability of states with underdevelopment. This comparison firstly assumes that underdevelopment (economic) creates vulnerability, thus assuming that if a state is ‘developed’ it is stable or sustainable. Secondly, it measures the failure (or success) of a state without including the progress of other areas outside the sphere of the 12 indicators, thus excluding important measures of development such as the decline the of illiteracy, decrease in fetal mortality rates, increased access to clean water sources and medication, amongst others. Nonetheless, when discussing failed states it is important to mention the FSI not just for its use by governments, organisations, educators, and analysts, but also because it provides a measure of assessment that tries to address the issues that cause threats, both domestically and internationally."

List of Countries by Fragile States Index
Africa? Run by blacks, reverting to the Stone Age.
Europe is better. Run by the White Man.
America is too, of course.

 

 

Fragile States Index 2021

The table below shows the FSI for 2021,[5] with comparisons of each country's current score to previous years' indices.[6] A higher score (with a maximum of 120) indicates a weaker, more vulnerable, or more fragile situation in the country.
