Publié dans l'édition "The World in 2013" du magazine économique britannique "The Economist", le classement "La loterie de la vie: Où naître en 2013" tente de donner une idée sur les meilleurs pays où un bébé naît en 2013 aura les meilleures opportunités pour une vie saine et prospère. Le calcul du classement est basé sur plusieurs indicateurs économiques, sociaux, institutionnels, climatiques...etc (voir méthode de calcul du classement selon "The Economist" en bas du tableau).
Selon ce classement et sans surprises, le meilleur pays du monde pour un nouveau né est la Suisse. Les suspects habituels (Scandinavie, Australie...etc) sont juste derrière.
D'après ce classement aussi, il vaut mieux naître en Algérie (54e) qu'en Tunisie (59), l''Egypte (60e) ou le Maroc (66e) en 2013!
The lottery of life methodology
The life satisfaction scores for 2006 (on scale of 1 to 10) for 130 countries (from the Gallup Poll) are related in a multivariate regression to various factors. As many as 11 indicators are statistically significant. Together these indicators explain some 85% of the inter-country variation in life satisfaction scores. The values of the life satisfaction scores that are predicted by our indicators represent a country's quality of life index. The coefficients in the estimated equation weight automatically the importance of the various factors. We can utilise the estimated equation for 2006 to calculate index values for year in the past and future, allowing for comparison over time as well across countries.
The independent variables in the estimating equa*tion for 2006 include: material wellbeing as measured by GDP per head (in $, at 2006 constant PPPS); life expect*ancy at birth; the quality of family life, based primarily on divorce rates; the state of political freedoms; job se*curity (measured by the unemployment rate); climate (measured by two variables: the average deviation of minimum and maximum monthly temperatures from 14 degrees Celsius; and the number of months in the year with less than 30mm rainfall); personal physical security ratings (based primarily on recorded homicide rates and ratings for risk from crime and terrorism); quality of community life (based on membership in so*cial organisations); governance (measured by ratings for corruption); gender equality (measured by the share of seats in parliament held by women).
