Middle East and Central Asia Economic Databook
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The Middle East and Central Asia Economic Data Book provides invaluable statistics and reports on the countries and political bodies of the Middle East and Central Asia. It covers many of the major oil producing countries that are rich in natural resources and human potential. It provides economic background on a new region emerging in the heart of the Eurasian continent, and is one of the first publications to recognize and address the economic unity of the region.
This first edition brings under together 26 countries that would elsewhere appear in three or four separate regional treatments, and enables statistical comparisons between countries. In depth articles cover regional issues such as "The emerging economic zone in the Middle East and Central Asia" and "The impact of the euro in the Middle East." An extensive series of over 200 statistical tables presents comparative figures for the 26 countries and political entities covered; including Afghanistan and Egypt, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan. The statistical tables cover basics such as population and life expectancy, as well as stock markets and energy resources.
The Middle East and Central Asia Economic Data Book 2003 recognizes and addresses the coming economic unity that includes the Arab countries of the Levant and the Arabian peninsula, Israel, the Islamic states of Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan, and the ex-Soviet republics of the Caucasus and central Asia. This in-depth economic survey of the region provides a fuller understanding of this new economic region and the states within it, and covers a part of the world where demographic, economic and business information is scarce or inaccessible. Imaginative use of color is used to make the presentation of data more accessible to the reader.
This edition profiles countries that will control the supply and price of oil worldwide during the remainder of the hydrocarbon era. It brings together clear and concise information that will help prepare business decision makers for the emergence of this new region and as such will be invaluable to libraries, universities, government departments, international organizations, trade organizations, banks, the media and anyone doing business with the area.
