Can you compile a list of the top four and bottom four countries which had respectively positive and negative influence over the world?
Of course, I have my own list in mind, but funnily enough I have a similar one here compiled from a recent 22-county poll conducted by GlobeScan (an international opinion research consultancy) and the Center for International and Security Studies at the University of Maryland – Program on International Policy Attitudes.
The poll was conducted for BBC World Service by asking 24,090 people around the world face-to-face or by telephone between December 6, 2011 and February 17, 2012 to rate the picked 16 countries and EU.
Expectedly, the worst countries are: Israel, North Korea, Pakistan and Iran with more than 50% saying they had mainly a negative influence.
The most “anti-Israel” views came from Egypt, Spain, South Korea, Germany and UK. The most “anti-Iran” views came from UK, France, Canada, US and Australia.
The full results are below, with a link to the full report here.
