What the graph holds to account
Criticism first. The scale has a floor and a ceiling.
- Floor
- Wars of aggression and man-made famine — Russia’s war on Ukraine, the Holodomor — sit at the bottom of the scale.
- Ceiling
- Builders whose documented decisions raised human welfare sit at the top.
- Living politicians
- Criticised first: a dossier opens with the documented harm, not a balanced biography.
