Slide 5 - Tekstslide

Slide 6 - Video

Want a just society? 
The best places in the world for a fair society  are in northern Europe. The U.S. isn't even in the top 15.
This week, the World Justice Project released its annual Rule of Law index. It's based on a survey of 1,000 people in three major cities in 99 countries, each asked identical questions about the limits of government powers, corruption, civil liberties and crime.

Slide 7 - Tekstslide

The Netherlands
The Netherlands score highest on civil justice and regulatory enforcement. When asked to rank on a scale from 1 to 10 how serious was the problem of corrupt judges or a lack of court independence from the government's power, corruption was a zero and independence ranked 0.2, meaning respondents are very confident in their judicial system.

Slide 8 - Tekstslide

Finland
Finland, judging by respondents there, has the best criminal justice system in the world. According to them, corruption of law enforcement and the courts is not a serious problem and the police have enough resources to catch the bad guys.

Slide 9 - Tekstslide

Sweden
Sweden is No. 3 overall, but No. 1 in fundamental human rights. Eighty-five percent said they strongly agreed that religious minorities can freely and publicly observe their holy days and events -- on par with the average score in the region -- while another 86% said the media could freely express their opinion against those in power without fear of retribution, a higher percentage than the average regional response.

Slide 10 - Tekstslide

Norway
Norway ranks No. 2 globally, but is No. 1 on matters related to open government, regulatory enforcement and civil justice. Respondents unanimously agreed that the government would provide public information if requested, and a little more than the regional average said their municipal governments were adequately doing their jobs.

Slide 11 - Tekstslide

No. 1: Denmark
Denmark ranks No. 1 overall, but is also No. 1 on issues related to constraints of government powers and absence of corruption. Seventy percent said that high-ranking government officers would be prosecuted and punished through fines, or time in prison if involved in a corruption case.
