China Governemt

Country Data Report for China, 1996-2013
This Country Data Report summarizes the data from the Worldwide Governance Indicators (WGI) project for a single country. The WGI report six aggregate
governance indicators for over 200 countries and territories over the period 1996-2013, covering i) Voice and Accountability, ii) Political Stability and Absence of
Violence, iii) Government Effectiveness, iv) Regulatory Quality, v) Rule of Law, and vi) Control of Corruption.
The line graphs on each page show the country's percentile rank on each of the six governance indicators. Percentile ranks indicate the percentage of countries
worldwide that rank lower than the indicated country, so that higher values indicate better governance scores. The line graphs include margins of error shown as
dashed lines, corresponding to 90% confidence intervals. Changes over time in the aggregate scores that are small relative to these margins of error should not
be interpreted as signalling a statistically significant change in the indicators.
The WGI are composite measures based on a large number of underlying data sources. The source data for each aggregate indicator are reported in a table on
each page. Individual data sources have been rescaled to run from 0 (low) to 1 (high). These scores are comparable over time and across countries since most
individual measures are based on similar methodologies over time. Scores from different individual indicators are not however directly comparable with each
other since the different data sources use different units and cover different sets of countries. Not all data sources cover all countries, and cases where data are
not available are reported as "..". For some sources and countries, the underlying source data is confidential and cannot be publicly disclosed at the request of
the organizations producing the data. These cases are reported as "NP".
For a full description of the WGI methodology, and interactive data access, and downloads of the aggregate and individual indicators,
please visit www.govindicators.org.
Disclaimer
The Worldwide Governance Indicators (WGI) are a research dataset summarizing the views on the quality of governance provided by a large number of enterprise, citizen and
expert survey respondents in industrial and developing countries. These data are gathered from a number of survey institutes, think tanks, non-governmental organizations,
international organizations, and private sector firms. The WGI do not reflect the official views of the World Bank, its Executive Directors, or the countries they represent. The
WGI are not used by the World Bank Group to allocate resources.
