Where is freedom in Europe? According to the World Value Survey, it is in Romania.

Likely reason: development trajectory. Why do a higher share of Romanians feel they have freedom of choice & control than in other parts of Europe? Likely reason: development trajectory.

Romania lags behind rest of Europe economically, but is already giving rise to knowledge-intensive sector.

Two things still keep Romania back: Share of higher education students lower than in other parts of Europe. Too much state control, too little economic freedom.

Personal liberties overall strong - Freedom of movement & assembly, sexual freedom. - Safety from crime. - But religious freedom and rule of law need to strenghten.

The recipe for success: Conclusion: The positive development that already exists in Romania can be improved. The recipe for success: Less state control, reduced corruption, free markets & investment in education.
