Acerca del contenido

This annual publication contains a range of economic and social data for the countries of the Latin America & Caribbean region. This edition contains some important modifications, both in content and design, in order to incorporate technological and statistical developments, and it is organised into four chapters covering: demographic and social indicators; economic, trade and balance-of-payments statistics as well as national accounts; the environment and natural resources; and issues relating to methodology and metadata. An electronic version of the yearbook is presented on the accompanying CD-ROM with additional tables giving more detailed information on the economic and social situation in each country.
