Abstract: Since1980s economic freedom policies have been popular in most countries, especially in developing countries. There are many studies regarding relationship between economic freedom and other socio-economic variables, but few dealt directly with the impact of economic freedom on inflation. This study analyses the effect of economic freedom on inflation in MENA region during 1996- 2006 using panel data regression analysis on the basis of the so- called Gordon theory. Our findings indicate that although the impact of economic freedom on inflationis not considerable butit is statistically significance.
