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 two topical articles, on progress towards achieving the Millennium Development Goals, by Professor Andrew S. Downes of the University of the West Indies, and on special treatment for small states in trade, by Virginia Horscroft, trade consultant to the Commonwealth Secretariat. Please note that a more recent volume in this series is now available. Contents Foreword Abbreviations   Part I: Recent Economic Trends in Commonwealth Small States 1.
