Charting countries is important because companies and their policies should be compared to the surroundings in which they operate for any comprehensive outcome. If a company does things better then the standard in the same country it should be made possible to point that out and not just look at global average stats or whatever.
- Ecology standards should be the same globally. Social standards will vary based on culture. Let's start with that assumption.
Now there are many ways to categorize all different questions:
- What's theory? (law o' court)
- What's practice? (law o' street)
- How do they interrelate and what factors it depends on?
- Human rights
- Workers' rights
- Environmental protection
- Historical considerations
- Geographical considerations
- "Consumerium friendliness"
