COMMENTARY     

Abel
16th August 2009 		Excellent. I as busy begging for an authoritative comparative database, until I tried the NationMaster.com.

Keep to good works up. What a way of helping research and human development.
OP
11th January 2006 		But these must surely be old figures? Both Argentina and Venezuela, for instance, have experienced very high growth the last few years, and the Argentinian economy is already stronger than that before the crash in '02.
Arthur
24th September 2005 		Hey! This page used to show statistics from 2004, why is it now showing obsolete numbers from 2001 and 2002?

Here's an newer article that puts Venezuela at 5% growth for the first quarter 2005, and 17%, fourth highest in the world, for 2004:

13th April 2005 		Developing countries’ economies grew at their fastest rate in 30 years and outpaced growth in wealthy nations in 2004, says the World Bank.

China, with 9.5 percent growth, was the fastest-growing economy, followed by India and Russia, where economies expanded by seven percent. Even in sub-Saharan Africa, a region with some of the world’s poorest countries, GDP increased 3.8 percent last year, thanks to soaring prices for oil and metals.

Foreign direct investment also grew nine percent last year, to $14 billion. Most of this was invested in the five most rapidly growing nations: Brazil, China, India, Mexico and the Russian Federation. These countries accounted for 88 percent of the increase and 60 percent of the total amount.
