One prominent explanation is that in some countries, notably western markets,    ___________ (praise OR Criticism; select ONLY one that applies) for/of the virtues of economic freedom has turned to  _____________ (concern or disregard; select ONLY one that applies) of its deficiencies. In others, notably emerging economies, we see the  ______________ (opposite OR Same)   sorts of circumstances.
Every year the Heritage Foundation ranks almost every country by its economic freedom. The Economic Freedom Index uses data from sectors like ______________ (Sociology,  Globalization,  Foreign Direct Licensing, Anthropology,  OR Business; Select ONLY one that applies),   ________________ ( Trade, Joint ventures, Migration,  OR regionalization; select ONLY one that applies), and governance and policy to generate a score with  _____________ (100 OR 0) being the most free, and likewise a score of   _____________ (100 OR 0) indicating no freedom.
Think of, for example, the police force that protects property rights, market regulators that ensure fair competition, monetary authorities that monitor a sound currency, or an impartial judiciary that enforces business contracts. Each, as an agent of the state, safeguards economic freedom. Hence, economic freedom does not exist       ___________ (independently OR interactively) of the state. Rather, it is both   _____________ (protected OR threatened) and  _________________ ( liberated OR regulated) by the state.
