See the methodology. https://freedomhouse.org/country/belgium/freedom-world/2020 1/13 6/5/2020 Belgium | Freedom House Overview Belgium is a stable electoral democracy with a long record of peaceful transfers of power. Political rights and civil liberties are legally guaranteed and largely respected. Major concerns in recent years have included the threat of terrorism, and corruption scandals that have unsettled the country’s complex institutional setting and political landscape. Key Developments in 2019 The federal and regional elections in May shifted the established balance of power in Belgian politics: parties on the far-left and far-right of the political spectrum gained seats, while establishment parties saw their support dwindle. No governing coalition had been formed by the end of the year. In October, police rescued 12 migrants in the back of a refrigerated truck in a highway parking area in the north of the country. Authorities were investigating the existence of a human trafficking ring; two days before this, British officials had found 39 people dead in the back of a truck entering the United Kingdom from Belgium. Political Rights A. Electoral Process A1 0-4 pts Was the current head of government or other chief national authority elected through free and fair elections? 4 / 4 The Belgian monarchy is largely ceremonial, although the king retains constitutional authority to mediate the process of government formation.
