The Mexico Peace Index (MPI), produced by the Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP), provides a comprehensive measure of the levels of peacefulness within Mexico from 2003 to 2012. It includes an analysis of the measures that make up the Index, as well as other socio-economic factors that are normally associated with peaceful societies. It also estimates the economic impact of violence and the economic benefits that would flow from increases in peace. The report does not make policy recommendations nor moral judgments on the appropriateness of government responses, rather it gathers and analyses data relevant to peace and violence in Mexico to better understand the drivers and economic value of peace.
