A method for measuring and scoring susceptibility to social unrest in a country or region is disclosed. Data is collected and entered into a computer regarding socioeconomic, political, demographic or other relevant conditions within the geographic area, and a set of key indicators of possible social unrest is provided. A computer standardizes he collected data across the indicators, calculates a performance level for each of the indicators, assigns a score for the collected data for each indicator within the geographic area based on the measurement of each indicator, and determines an overall score for the indicators.
