Swiss Civic Resilience Index
This baseline metric treats the referendum as a state-capacity question with spillovers: the preferred outcome is the one that strengthens defense and emergency readiness by 2036 without simply pushing shortages, productivity losses, or welfare costs into other parts of Swiss society.
How to read this index
The final score always runs from 0 to 100, where higher means a better overall Swiss welfare outcome by 2036. Individual ingredients do not all move in the same direction: higher GDP per capita can improve the index, while lower commute time can also improve it because that component is marked as lower is better.
