Lopez & Lopez - Podcast on Instagram: "La democracia plena es mucho menos común de lo que la mayoría de las personas cree. Los datos sobre democracia, sistemas políticos y libertad muestran una reducción del número de democracias plenas en el mundo y reflejan cómo está cambiando el equilibrio político a nivel global. Las instituciones se fortalecen o se debilitan poco a poco, nunca de un día para otro. 🟡 Episodio completo en el enlace de la bio. #democracia #politica #geopolitica #actualidad #analisispolitico #sistemapolítico"

The clip mostly tracks the Economist Intelligence Unit’s Democracy Index, but one country-count claim is unclear and the “none” statement about full democracies is contradicted by the source.
Claim-by-claim breakdown
- Accurate (97% confidence): The United Nations has 193 member states, so saying there are 193 countries in the world is a common shorthand. The UN lists 193 Member States.
- Accurate (93% confidence): There are 25 full democracies in the world. EIU’s 2024 Democracy Index says there are 25 full democracies.
- Accurate (96% confidence): Only 6.6% of the world’s population lives in full democracies, down from 12.5% ten years ago. EIU reports 6.6% now, versus 12.5% a decade earlier.
- False (99% confidence): There are no full democracies in the world. The EIU Democracy Index 2024 lists 25 full democracies, so the claim that there are none is wrong.
- Unsupported (67% confidence): There are 60 democracies in the world. The available source-backed counts vary by democracy definition; the clip’s exact ‘60 democracies’ figure is not clearly documented in the cited materials.
