Indonesia's democracy index weakened again in 2025, marking a three-year consecutive decline since 2023.

This is evident from the Democracy Index report released by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU).

Since 2006, the EIU has regularly measured the democracy index in various countries based on five assessment categories, namely electoral processes and political pluralism, civil liberties, government functions, political participation, and political culture.

The EIU then categorizes countries into four regime categories based on their index scores, namely:

Score >8 to 10 points: full democracy
Score >6 to ≤8 points: flawed democracy
Score >4 to ≤6 points: hybrid regime
Score 0 to ≤4 points: authoritarian regime

In 2023, Indonesia achieved an index score of 6.53 points, a decrease compared to the previous year.

Then the score further declined to 6.44 points in 2024, and continued to weaken to 6.37 points in 2025.

The score in 2025 placed Indonesia in 60th place out of 167 countries, and it was classified as a flawed democracy.

According to the EIU, flawed democracies generally have free and fair electoral systems and respect basic civil liberties.

However, flawed democracies have weaknesses in aspects such as limited press freedom, governance issues, low citizen political participation, and underdeveloped political culture.
