Economic Freedom of the World
Annual Report 2004


James Gwartney, Robert Lawson
Germany shares 19th place in the world on the economic freedom ranking contained in the Economic Freedom of the World: 2005 Annual Report- falling down from the 9th rank in 1980!
This 8th global economic freedom report ranks 127 nations with data provided at five-year intervals back to 1980. This allows readers to track the progress of countries across the 25-year period and clearly identify trends in economic policy in the countries analysed.

Economic freedom is based on personal choice, voluntary exchange, freedom to compete, and protection of persons and property. This requires the rule of law, property rights, limited government intervention, freedom to trade, and sound money, and the report seeks to capture the extent to which countries follow these desirable policy options.

As there is a direct correlation between economic freedom, economic growth and per capita incomes, the publication provides invaluable information for investors considering direct long-term investments. It also provides government policy makers with information that can guide them in making their countries more attractive to foreign investors.

There can no longer be any doubt. People’s lives are enhanced in every way by greater economic freedom.
