World Economic and Social Survey 1994?Current Trends and Policies in the World Economy
World Economic and Social Survey 1994 is being released for the first time under this title, signalling the intention to integrate more fully the treatment of the economic and social dimensions of development. In addition to the usual overview of current and emerging economic trends, the 1994 Survey focuses on the issue of unemployment, which has become one of the major economic and social challenges faced primarily by developed market economies but also by countries on a global level. It also addresses demographic changes and their social, economic and environmental consequences.
