This 1995 edition of the World Tables updates core socio-economic indicators given on country and topical pages in the 1994 edition. The data cover the period 1973 to 1993. The base year for constant price data is 1987 (see Sources and Methods, Use and Origin of Resources, for details of the rebasing and "chain-linking" of the constant price series),
This edition of World Tables contains data for 164 economies in the country pages, including estimates for the economies of the former Soviet Union (FSU). Additional data for these economies can be found in other World Bank publications, in particular, Historically Planned Economies: A Guide to the Data (1993 edi tion) and Statistical Handbook: States of the Former USSR (1993 and 1994 editions). Estimates for the economies of the FSU are subject to more than the usual level of uncertainty and should be regarded as preliminary. Germany does not yet have a fully merged statistical system, so while most economic data refer to the Federal Republic of Germany before unification, demographic and social data refer to the unified Ger many. Footnotes explain coverage. Basic indicators for an additional 45 economies with sparse data are presented in Table A.1, including the West Bank and Gaza and the Cayman Islands, in this edition.
The World Tables disseminates country estimates used by the World Bank in its analysis of economic and social trends in developing countries, in particular World Bank borrowers. To make the publication a more useful resource, other economies are covered where they provide internationally comparable measures in readily usable form, but these are not subject to detailed scrutiny by World Bank staff. Data for high-income OECD economies are based on reports of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). National publications are used for the remaining economies. These sources, generally specified in the Country Notes, should be consulted by readers wishing to be assured of the most timely and complete reports.
