Which is the most violent country to live in?
《經(jīng)濟(jì)與和平研究所》在本周發(fā)表的2015年的全球和平指數(shù)顯示去年因戰(zhàn)爭造成的經(jīng)濟(jì)損失達(dá)到了14.3萬億,相當(dāng)于全球國民生產(chǎn)總值的13.4%。 BBC全球事務(wù)記者 Mike Wooldridge 發(fā)回以下報(bào)道:
The index, launched in 2007, seeks to measure what it calls global peacefulness, ranking 162 nations by such measures as the levels of violence and crime within the country, their military expenditure and involvement in wars.
Iceland tops the list for peacefulness and many OECD countries have now reached historically high levels of peace, according to the Index. Syria is judged the least peaceful country and the index says the number of people killed in conflicts globally was 180,000 last year, up from 49,000 in 2010.
It concludes that there is now an increasing division between the most and least peaceful nations, and it argues that reducing conflict is crucial to continued world economic recovery.
