| description | This chapter examines the main supranational institutions producing databases on the components of governance quality, comparing methods and thematic focuses of different databases, and especially focusing on the methodological fit in relation to the respective aims. We introduce the measurement approaches of three exemplary cases of supranational measurement: the World Bank Worldwide Governance Indicators, the OECD Government at a Glance, and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. We show how the three databases focus on different dimensions of governance impacts and employ significantly different methods of data collection and representation. Then, we introduce a thematic focus on digital transformation policies, exemplified by an analysis of the UN E-government Development Index. We conclude by synthetizing similarities and differences among measurement approaches, illustrating whether an association between span of performance measures included and methodologies employed is apparent. |
