Over the last 15 years the Heritage Foundation and the Wall Street Journal have joined forces to produce an annual Index of Economic Freedom. In it 10 economic freedoms are defined and used to measure the level of economic freedom in countries around the world. In order to complete the Week 2 assignment you need to draw upon the 2011 index (http://www.heritage.org/Index/) and its necessary sections. At a minimum, read the executive summary and pay particular attention to the graphs on page 5.
Assignment requirements:
A.Based on your reading of material from the Index of Economic Freedom, describe the relationship between economic freedom and variations in wealth among countries.
B.Select a country from the Index and bring in additional source material to explain its ranking and how it has changed over the last 5-10 years.
