Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR Throughout the year, Freedom House personnel conduct fact-finding missions to gain more in-depth knowledge of the vast political transformations affecting our world.

The project team also consults an array of published source materials, ranging from the reports of other human rights organizations to regional newspapers and magazines.

Consisting of profiles of 192 states and 17 disputed or occupied territories, this volume comparatively examines levels of political and civil liberties around the world. Countries are rated on a scale consisting of "free," "partly free," and "not free." Each entry offers brief overview of recent historical developments and an examination of the state of liberties. Generally conforming to definitions of freedom promoted by capitalist democracies and ignoring economic rights or disparities in access to resources, Freedom House has produced a report that is likely to be welcomed by mainstream commentators and politicians of the U.S. and Europe.

Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR Freedom in the World contains both comparative ratings and written narratives and is now the standard reference work for measuring the progress and decline in political rights and civil liberties on a global basis. The right-wing American think tank presents its 30th annual review of the relative "freedom" of the countries of the world. Each country's entry includes political and civil rights scores, basic demographic information, and a review of political and civil liberties. Introductory essays on the implications of ethno-national conflict and the general state of freedom in Latin America at the beginning and tables and statistics at the end bracket the entries. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) From Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, an overview of the state of civil liberties in 192 countries and 18 territories in 2003. Each country report contains basic political, economic, and social data (drawn from sources such as the World Bank, Population Reference Bureau, CIA World Factbook, and The World Almanac and Book of Facts 2004), followed by a historical summary and description of the year's events and an assessment of political rights there. Each nation is assigned a status of Free, Partly Free, or Not Free, based on the extent to which the rule of law prevails, basic human rights are protected, and free political competition occurs there. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Freedom in the World contains both comparative ratings and written narratives and is now the standard reference work for measuring the progress and decline in political rights and civil liberties on a global basis. Freedom in the World, the Freedom House flagship survey whose findings have been published annually since 1972, is the standard-setting comparative assessment of global political rights and civil liberties. The survey ratings and narrative reports on 192 countries and a group of select territories are used by policy makers, the media, international corporations, and civic activists and human rights defenders to monitor trends in democracy and track improvements and setbacks in freedom worldwide. The Freedom House, which has been active in establishing pro-western regimes in such places as the Ukraine and Georgia, rates countries according to their election practices, political rights, and civil liberties. Along with country reports and related and disputed territory reports--Palestine, Chechnya, and Puerto Rico among them--are tables and ratings, and an explanation of the survey methodology. There is no index.
