The aim of this paper is to provide a different, somewhat more general, approach to the axiomatic ranking of opportunity sets in term of freedom of choice. The opportunity ransking is defined axiomatically relative to some standard of freedom or theory of freedom. The paper provides a general characterization result of the opportunity ranking in terms of the family of freedom standards.
