The Global Justice Index is a multiyear research project conducted at the Fudan-IAS to conceptualize and measure each country's contribution to achieving greater global justice. In 2019, we completed our research project on first-year achievements, with the rankings of nation-states at the global level based on data from 2010 to 2017. This was published titled the "Global Justice Index Report" in (Vol. 5, No. 3, 2020). The "Global Justice Index Report 2020" is the second annual report based on our work analyzing data from 2010 to 2018, which was concluded in 2020. In order to better measure each country's performance and contribution to achieving greater global justice, compared to the first edition published in 2020, we have improved the model, added the refugee issue to expand the issue areas to 10, and added new indicators, regional analysis and comparison in this report. The report comprises five main sections. In the introduction, we discuss the development of the conceptual framework and evaluative principles to justify our selection of dimensions and indicators for measurement. Next, in the section of methodology, we discuss the production, normalization, and aggregation of the raw data and the generation of the final results. In the findings section, we report the data, indicators and our results for the ten issues, and provide regional comparisons. And then, in the following section we present the main results, and report the ranking of each country's contribution to achieving greater global justice. In the final section, we discuss the applications and limitations of the index, and its potential further research trajectories.
《全球正义指数》是复旦大学-高等学术研究院开展的一个多年期研究项目,旨在对每个国家为实现更大全球正义所做的贡献进行概念化和衡量。2019年,我们完成了关于第一年成果的研究项目,基于2010年至2017年的数据对全球层面的民族国家进行了排名。这一研究成果于2020年以《全球正义指数报告》为题发表(《复旦人文社会科学论丛》第5卷第3期)。《2020年全球正义指数报告》是基于我们对2010年至2018年数据分析工作的第二份年度报告,该分析工作于2020年完成。为了更好地衡量每个国家在实现更大全球正义方面的表现和贡献,与2020年发布的第一版相比,我们改进了模型,增加了难民问题,将问题领域扩展到10个,并在本报告中增加了新指标、区域分析和比较。该报告包括五个主要部分。在引言部分,我们讨论了概念框架和评估原则的发展,以证明我们对衡量维度和指标的选择是合理的。接下来,在方法部分,我们讨论了原始数据的生成、标准化和汇总以及最终结果的生成。在研究结果部分,我们报告了十个问题的数据、指标和结果,并进行了区域比较。然后,在接下来的部分中,我们展示了主要结果,并报告了每个国家为实现更大全球正义所做贡献的排名。在最后一部分,我们讨论了该指数的应用和局限性及其潜在的进一步研究方向。
