Commonwealth Secretariat

This unique annual collection of key economic and statistical data on the world's small states--those with fewer than five million inhabitants--is an essential reference for economists, planners and policy makers. The book contains fifty-one tables covering selected economic and social indicators culled from international and national sources and presents information unavailable elsewhere. A detailed parallel commentary on trends in Commonwealth small states, looking at growth, employment, inflation and economic policy issues, permits a deeper understanding of developments behind the figures. The book also includes three topical articles: The Effects of Limited Diversification on Small States--Stephen Fletcher, St. George's University, Grenada; Insights into the Economic Development of Small, Often Island, Economies--Godfrey Baldacchino, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada and Geoff Bertram of Victoria University, Wellington, New Zealand; and Macroeconomic Stability in Small States--Lawrence L. Schembri, Bank of Canada.
