Modern indices for international economic diplomacy

Research output: Book/ReportBook

Abstract

Composite indices are used by national and international organisations, as well as governments and corporations, to track various performance aspects of a country’s economy and its people, evaluate progress, and engage constructively in policy dialogue; and they have long proven useful as communication tools and inputs into decision-making and policymaking. Modern Indices for International Economic Diplomacy compiles a spectrum of relevant indices for development and well-being used in benchmarking across nations, namely the OECD Better Life Index, the Gini Index, the Gender Equality/Inequality Index, the International Energy Security Risk Index, the Big Mac Index, the Country Risk Index, the Corruption Perceptions Index, and the Global Terrorism Index.The book will be relevant to practitioners, policymakers, researchers, and students interested in the topic of international economic relationships.
