Five formulas, seven societies
Every value here comes from the Parts of the book. Each society has its own page.
Participation to Burden ratio: 0.71 (0.85)
OpenParticipation to Burden ratio: 0.56 (0.79)
OpenParticipation to Burden ratio: 0.52 (0.71)
OpenParticipation to Burden ratio: 0.50 (0.68)
OpenParticipation to Burden ratio: 0.47 (0.69)
OpenParticipation to Burden ratio: 0.30 (0.55)
OpenParticipation to Burden ratio: not measurable
OpenFull track = 1, where participation equals burden. Solid bar: paid work. Pale bar: with home work. Nigeria could not be measured from public data.
| Society | Participation to Burden ratio, paid work (with home work) | Ratio of the richest 1% (its parts counted in hours of work) | Overall worth level, hours of NEP work a week per capable adult (set point)* | Respect value | VIL depth |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reference point | 1 = participation equals burden | 0 = on the brink; above 0 = inside the green boundary | Above the set point (in brackets) = spare participation | 1 = world-average preference gradient where the hours given equal the hours needed | 0% = no need rests on a resource that does not satisfy the green check |
| India | 0.71 (0.85) | −0.79 | 36.1 (40.8) | 0.93 | 87% |
| Egypt | 0.56 (0.79) | −0.76 | 32.5 (36.4) | 1.37 | 97% |
| Brazil | 0.52 (0.71) | −0.82 | 25.6 (25.0) | 0.79 | 73% |
| China | 0.50 (0.68) | −0.77 | 32.2 (32.9) | 0.92 | 87% |
| Russia | 0.47 (0.69) | −0.87 | 30.9 (31.8) | 0.65 | 96% |
| United States | 0.30 (0.55) | −0.86 | 32.6 (33.0) | 0.79 | 92% |
| Nigeria | not measurable | −0.76 | 32.5 (45.1) | 1.03 | 55% |
* Overall worth level: the first number is the hours of NEP work a capable adult does in a week; the number in brackets is the set point, the hours of NEP work needed a week per capable adult so that the NEPs of all members are met.
