“Rule of Law Index” is released by which of the following ?

Show answer

Answer: D. The Rule of Law Index is published every year by the World Justice Project, an independent organisation based in Washington, D.C. So option D.

Watch for: Bodies with 'justice' or 'human rights' in their name sound like natural publishers.

Why the other options are wrong
  • A. Wrong because Amnesty International publishes human rights reports, not this index.
  • B. Wrong because the ICJ is a UN court that decides disputes, not an index publisher.
  • C. Wrong because the UN human rights office does not publish this index.
