Freedom in the World is an institutional effort by Freedom House to
monitor the progress and decline of political rights and civil
liberties in 192 nations and 17 related and disputed territories.
These year-end reviews of freedom began in 1955, when they were
called the Balance Sheet of Freedom and, still later, the Annual
Survey of the Progress of Freedom. This program was expanded in the
early 1970s, and has been issued in a more developed context as a
yearbook since 1978.
Since 1989, this distinguished Survey project has been a
year-long effort produced by regional experts, consultants, and
human rights specialists. It derives its information from a wide
range of authoritative sources. Most valued of these are the many
human rights activists, journalists, editors, and political figures
who keep the world informed of the human rights situation in their
own countries.
Throughout the year, Freedom House personnel regularly conduct
fact-finding missions to gain in-depth knowledge of the vast
political transformations affecting our world, . These
investigations make every effort to include meetings with a
cross-section of political parties and associations, human rights
monitors, religious figures, representatives of both the private
sector and trade union movement, academics, and journalists.
Freedom in the World is now the standard reference work for
measuring progress, or the lack thereof, in the process of regime
democratization and political maturity.
