Flare-up watch
Watch (1.2) — driven by safety & health and internal tension
- Internal tension above its usual level (+1.4)
- Safety & health far above its usual level (+2.3)
- Media attention around its usual level (−0.2)
Signals consistent with rising crisis risk. A composite of press signals, not a forecast.
Composite of the day's departure scores (z) against the country's own history — internal tension 0.25, safety & health 0.20, agenda divergence 0.20, framing gap 0.15, media attention 0.20; a missing component drops out and the others are renormalised. Calm below 1.2 · Watch to 1.5 · High above. Needs 14 days of history on two components. Method →
Risk pressure, last 30 days
Its press also carried 395 foreign-subject articles in these 30 days — counted out of the levels above. Behind the numbers ↓
Pressure index: Normal (+1.6) — driven by safety & health
Easing ≤ −0.5 · Normal to +1.6 · Rising to +1.8 · Surging above — the 30-day pressure read against the country's own history.
Level = risk-flavoured articles in the country's own press over the last 30 days — what its outlets reported, wherever the story happened — against the country's own baseline (mean of the previous three 30-day windows). Quiet 0 · Low up to the baseline · Elevated up to twice the baseline · High above. Counts, not severities: a press signal, not a rating. Every row links to the articles counted. Titles shown translated are model translations; the others appear in their original language — each link opens the original article. Method →
