Varieties of Democracy

Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem) is a new approach to conceptualizing and measuring democracy. We provide a multidimensional and disaggregated dataset that reflects the complexity of the concept of democracy as a system of rule that goes beyond the simple presence of elections. The V-Dem project distinguishes between five high-level principles of democracy: electoral, liberal, participatory, deliberative, and egalitarian, and collects data to measure these principles.

民主多样性（V-Dem）项目系一种创新性的民主概念化与测量方法。本项目提供多维且细分的民主数据集，旨在反映民主作为超越单纯选举存在的治理体系概念的复杂性。V-Dem项目将民主的五项高级原则区分开来：选举、自由、参与、审议和公平，并收集相关数据以衡量这些原则。
