Which country does the most good for the world? | Simon Anholt

It's an unexpected side effect of globalization: problems that once would have stayed local-say, a bank lending out too much money-now have consequences worldwide. But still, countries operate independently, as if alone on the planet. Policy advisor Simon Anholt has dreamed up an unusual scale to get governments thinking outwardly: The Good Country Index. In a riveting and funny talk, he answers the question, "Which country does the most good?" The answer may surprise you (especially if you live in the US or China).

Ireland, that recent story where they donated money to Native Americans during this coronavirus pandemic to thank Native Americans for their donation to Ireland during Irish potato famine.

I remember reading about Ireland's overall levels of altruism before but as I understand the metrics for measuring these and others forms of helping have been revised in recent years (in tandem with changes throughout the world as we know of it), so although Ireland may still be among the most charitable I don't think it is considered to be the most altruistic (granted the new metrics being used and their emphases are a matter of revised interpretation)

There is such a list for pharmaceutical companies with some great results. It's called the Access to Medicine Index. For example, MSD has pledged to work on onchocerciasis by producing the curative drug for free (for 100M people a year) until it is no longer necessary. A PR campaign, sure, but it prevents millions of cases of blindness worldwide.

If you imagine the world as a glass of water, and all of its molecules as people in the world, you can get a good picture of the problem we face with globalization. When you put a drop of colored fluid into the glass (an idea, a nation, etc) you see that the color swirls around and, with time, eventually dissolves into the entire glass. At first, the color is strong, vibrant, and rich (rich culture, rich history, etc) but then fades away, being absorbed into the system (globalization). At other times, molecules in this glass may act more like oil than water, resisting absorption in the system by clinging to older times and ways. So if you imagine this, what you see now is a glass full of colors and fluids, suspended in odd shaped bubbles and looking like liquid stained glass, splitting and joining, mixing and molding, to fit into the world. Over a long time however, the absorption is inevitable, and it will happen, hopefully very peacefully... but this is the true problem: Drop a firecracker in your glass. Liquid splashes everywhere (death), colors mix rapidly creating a blend of odd new colors and fluids, and every color is marred with a bit of soot making the entire glass darker. War changes the world quickly, and that is what the true powerful globalists want, WAR.

I am Irish and I am quite blown away by this i know back in the 1980s when we had mass imagination and high unemployment we donated more to the 3rd world per capita than the rest of the world. Us Irish have had a very oppressive history full of hunger loss and strife we have been cast to the four corners of the world. Our country is still partly occupied by a foreign power yet we don't hate them but we are full of empathy for oppressed people in other lands.

Exactly. There are other indexes that shows what the citizens of a nation think of their own country based off of similar metrics. So if you look at these indexes and see countries that score high on both, i.e. the people living there like living there, generally speaking, and they contribute a lot to the rest of world according to this index - that should make one think - how come they can contribute so much to the rest of the world but still have great lives at home? Are there more countries on these indexes that score high and do similar things with regards to politics etc? And if there are, why isn't my country doing that?

The cause for all problems is the selfish tendencies of each individual, which can lead to corruption of those three mechanisms.

The US does a lot of good but they also do a lot of damage so I can see that they would rank low on a list like this. There's a reason that Western European countries can be on this list, they tend to have nice neighbors. Many companies incorporate in Ireland to avoid paying taxes in other countries so I don't accept seeing them at the top of the list.

Even though, as many people keep pointing out here in the comments, the data is likely to be flawed in more ways than one and the list/rankings might be flawed as a result, that really is not the point. It's about trying to be good globally rather than "own country first" and people here fighting about which country is good or bad or why these rankings "suck" is showing that people still don't get it. It's not about you and your country, think globally goddamnit, that's the message. Judge your country by what it's doing for humanity, don't judge other countries because you think your country is surely doing it much better and should be higher up the list, that's exactly the attitude Simon tries to change.

Taint ABird well, call me biased, but India. I've heard that we're seen as a country filled with rapists and filth, with faeces laden streets all over. Honestly, while rape does occur, like in any other country, it's not as bad as portrayed. In fact, women, my sister included, do roam around alone late in the night without need for much worry for their safety. Rapes are a problem, yes, and shouldn't take place, but we don't have a "rape problem" any more than the next country. As for filth ridden, yes, we do have poor people who have no means to afford a place and hence build slums and defaecate out in the open, but it's unfortunately the hard life they were given. They don't want to be there doing that. If slums bother you, it's not like it's all over the place, they're there in some places.

I would guess that he means that what this speaker says isn't true. It's supposed to sound nice and supposed to help the world move forward to working together. However he generalizes really much and doesn't actually know how the world works. It's not about how everyone just cares about their own country or how everyone's a narcissist. Every country has its own agenda and some actually strive towards working together. However, this doesn't work. Some countries actually need to look inward and fix their own problems before they do anything else. There is a lot that needs to be fixed in the world. Not just global problems. It's hard doing the right thing and even harder to even know what the right thing is to do. This TED talk makes everything sound so easy. Just like the motivational asmr viedos that talk about self improvement. Just my take tho

The amount of good done is very dependant upon the capacity to do good. If person A has ¤3 and gives them all away to person B who has ¤0 person A is considered a saint who now needs charity from person C or person A will starve to death. This is the essence of wealth redistribution. Instead, if a person C has ¤5 trillion and they give ¤100 to the person B they have benefited person B 33x more than person A could have while person C notices no decline in comfort or survivability. Sainthood is touching but ultimately without wealth creation, all the saints would starve to death. The nation that has the best system for creating wealth should be at the top of the list. The nations with the best system for creating wealth should ignore the list altogether and embrace the sovereignty of their own nation. If you want to understand why I believe the things that I believe then read Atlas Shrugged twice.

I am Irish, and was slightly lifted in spirit when Ireland was ranked #1, but we also have our own problems. Maybe the reason America has such a "hacking problem" is because you are such a big country and because your pathetic excuse of a president is "the most protected man on earth" it must be an extremely important nation and have extremely useful information.

Seeing Belgium and United Kingdom in this list, I could conclude that he is just ignoring the last 150 year of history, colonization and so on... Leopold II alone killed more than 10 million congolese people... United Kingdom just in India, forcing them to starv, got also pretty high numbers on killing people, to no metion their colonies in Africa.... And then you ask: Whats colonization has to do with nowdays? well, you should be asking how did these small countries accumulate so much wealth....

You have to take all of history into consideration then. I am not disagreeing with you but i recently had a similar discussion with a friend and if you look at history, many countries did horrific things. With great power comes great responsibility and i think counties tend to get power way before they become mature and knowledgable about how to use it. I can think of very few powerful empires and countries that did not commit horrific atrocities, and this is not limited to one continent.
@brunofritz650

@@Nightshaderling The problem begins when we take "countries" as single entities, when they are actually the result of the forces of the powerful dominant class that rules them. In this sense, you would not be able to treat the Russia of Nicholas II to the Stalinist Russia as the same entity, since diferent powers/groups were holding the control of the country. In the case of United Kingdom and Berlgium, the dominant class is pretty much the same, not the same people, people but many of the children and grandchildren of those holding power at the time, are still very influential (particularly the bankers) - Well, in the United Kingdom you still have a royal family that has being keeping the throne within blood lineage, although its not fair to say that they are actually holding power, but they are certainly big allies of those rulling . The short story is that there is no such a thing as a "nice country", and this measure of countries that make the most good to others sounds like some light weight propaganda... but if you really want to talk about country policies that are driven towards a strong sense of solidarity, you should probably put Cuba in this list, as the country, even being such a small and poor one, it is giving humanitarian aid all over the globe (particularly by sending doctors) way over their monetary capacity (there is a monetary equivalent for the formation of this doctors, which is not cheap, especially for a country like Cuba, but the help they provide all over the globe is priceless...). That`s being said, we can talk about history of empires. Its importante to notice though, that the more recent the empires we are talking about, the greater the damage the were able to do to their dominated, and they did.. no single empire in history of mankind harmmed more people than United States. Before them, england and European biggest colonizers get on top... Even if you go way back in times of Roman empire, you would find empires more merciful and with greater humanistic sense than these modern empires... Adrianus and Marcus Aurelius, for their ideas, for instance, seemed to be better people than Churchill...

Not the countries that are rich. The wealth is owned privately. Spain didn't become rich by looting South America - it went bust. The wealth is privatised. UK ain't rich. I live in an area of the North that is poorer than Eastern Germany was in the 80's. The system favours the already powerful and rich. It's now a battle between the corporations and democracy. That will end with the destruction of the our climate and humans.

I am an Indian. And am one of the biggest critics of India ( though I am insignificant.. Lol). What amazes me about this country is that it stood up. So many languages, so many people each foreginers to other, but it stood up as an entity. With all the caste system and divison it managed to keep together. Inspite of poverty and huge corruption, and the constant inteferrence by outside agencies we managed to create better institutions. And the reason for all this is it never forgot its past. Never. 1000 years of foreign rule quartered India at many places, but whatever that remains of the original Indo-Iranian culture has withstood the test of time. The credit of creating a self cleaning culture invariably goes to the founding fathers of this culture. Who created an opem religion, which meant essentially all the people in Bharatvarsha were included. Hinduism was made as open religon, one where God's importance is less, but your preception of the world is more important. If it was not for the sung and unsung ancient Indians, we would be 10 to 15 countries, fighting like Europe of 1940s. And how fragile the balance was can be seem in present day Pakistan. It was carved put from the same people, form the same cultural backgorund, from the same society. And today 4 of the 5 or 6 major demographies pf Pakistan are revolting against it. I think only thing India contributed to the world was - how a globalised world can function and remain together inspite of extreme challenges both external and internal. Afterall CIA's activities here has beem well written about. Just look at arvind kejriwal. When Indian govt. Took a hard line stance at WTO and later at climate meet, Arvind Kejriwal was getting stonger day and night, he was a social media hero, 3 or 4 new names start appearing, the intolerance protests. When Indian signed a lot treaties with America and showed friendly overtures.... And Narendra Modi personal endeavour to have good relationship with Obama started matterialising, suddenly out of nowhere, tapes leak out, scandals in AAP starts coming out every day, AAP gets effectively eliminated as a 'positive political force'. It is now just a petty party. Its hard not to connect the dots. There is always an external hand here. And with so many in divisons, their work is far easier. But India manages to do it.
