[full-text, 200 pages]
The 2006 edition of Latin America and the Caribbean: Selected Economic and Social Data (the
LAC Databook) includes the most recent data at the time of publication from a multitude of
international and national sources. The Bureau for Latin America and the Caribbean of the US
Agency for International Development presents this Databook with the goal of gathering and
presenting the most up-to-date information possible from official country sources and leading
international institutions compiled in a single reference. Data tables provide statistics useful for
regional analysis, and more summary charts have been added throughout the book compared
to previous editions. Presentation of many of the tables and figures in the LAC Databook allows
for comparisons to be made across both countries and time. If interpreted with care, the data
in this publication can present a useful picture of the state and progress of socioeconomic
development in Latin America and the Caribbean.
The LAC Databook has a publicly available online counterpart at http://qesdb.usaid.gov/lac
where the data that is reported in the Databook is continuously updated.
