Economic Freedom of the World Map

The first Economic Freedom of the World Report, published in 1996, was the result of a decade of research by a team which included several Nobel Laureates and over 60 other leading scholars in a broad range of fields, from economics to political science, and from law to philosophy. This is the 11th edition of Economic Freedom of the World and this year's publication ranks 141 nations for 2005, the most recent year for which data are available.
