Abstract
Freedom, as a value in human life, is high in the hierarchy of values. A value that is bounded by social conformity and written regulated behaviour - law. Freedom, focused on the identity of one's own decisions that affect the life in society and develop the social-psychological and spiritual life of man, is a phenomenon that conditions the existence of man in the intentions of the social good, to act in the intentions of social norms and motives that are in accordance with them.

SUMMARY
The present study shows that the influence of collective consciousness is the most difficult to transform. Citizens who are socialized in a securing socio-economic formation in the long term are also transformed into liberal-democratic values in the long term. Employment policy and social security policy have undergone developmental changes several times since 1989, and even after 33 years we still have legislative constraints on the freedom of citizens to decide how to proceed when they lose their jobs.
