Existing rankings and listings of fragile states for example by the Fund for Peace the World Bank and the OECD measure the consequences rather than the causes of fragility. It is an index that is supposed to provide an underlying value for state stability but instead is lost in tautology. Due to their emphasis on elements of state performance. Below is the complete set of Fragile States Index data from 2006-2018. The Fragile States Index FSI produced by The Fund for Peace FFP is a critical tool in highlighting not only the normal pressures that all states experience but also in identifying when those pressures are outweighing a states capacity to manage those pressures. Once you have selected a year dont forget to click the sort button above the Total column to re-sort the countries based on score for that year.

Discuss the utility of Hofstedes Cultural Distance and the Cultural Domain on the CernySmith Assessment in identifying cross-cultural stressors. The Fragile State index measures the states territory especially noting any land that they have lost control of and it measures to see if the state has a monopoly on the use of force and violence in the state. The Fragile States Index is based on a conflict assessment framework known as CAST that was developed by FFP nearly a quarter-century ago for assessing the vulnerability of states to collapse. The Fragile States Index is an annual assessment of 178 countries based on a measurement of the social economic and political pressures that each country faces. Since one of the supposed uses of the index is to forecast violence measuring violence to predict violence is true by definition. The Fragile States Index FSI produced by The Fund for Peace FFP is a critical tool in highlighting not only the normal pressures that all states experience but also in identifying when those pressures are outweighing a states capacity to manage those pressures.
