This paper explores the relationship between economic freedom, political institutions, and conflict. We use a relatively new measure of peace that offers the unique advantage of capturing both internal and external conflicts, and we use a Freedom House measure of civil liberties for political liberties. According to our findings, countries with higher levels of economic freedom, other things equal, also have lower levels of external and internal conflict. In addition, we find a statistically significant relationship between the degree of civil liberty protection in a country and conflict. Our preliminary findings provide further evidence of the negative relationship between economic freedom and conflict (or positive relationship between economic freedom and peace).
