Abstract
The article deals with the methodological aspects of the index “Freedom in the World”, namely: 1. evolution of the methodological base, which partially changed over 45 years, since the Raymond Gastil index only began to be used to measure the level of freedom in the world; 2. each element of a three-tier ranking system consisting of scores (100-point scale), ratings (from 1 to 7), and status (free, partly free and not free countries/territories). The reports of “Freedom in the World” over the past few years are analysed and a comparative analysis of the global, regional and cross-temporal levels of research is developed.
