Summary/Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to emphasise the importance of transparency in the creation of any new economic system, both completely and in the specific area of privatisation. Its hypothesis is that transparency is an extremely important precondition of economic growth and democratisation. Or, transparency has become a more important axle for the establishment of a efficient economy, a democratic society and an improvement in levels of social justice. Basically, I connect transparency with information and freedom. How can individuals receive information on ‘public issues’? Do all individuals have the same access to information? Can all of them use that same information in the process of their individual decision-making? What does freedom, both political and economic, look like in society? What are the possibilities for each individual to realise (to use) the principles of free choice? What are the possibilities for each individual to express his or her own opinions and attitudes, and not to be repressed by people who do not like that opinion?
