Chapter IV. The World Overseas

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  26 March 2020

Extract

The year 1965 was on the whole again a good year for world production, with the real gross national product in industrial countries rising by just over 4½ per cent (table 54 below). The overall rate of expansion was slightly lower than in 1964, because although growth in North America was faster than in 1964, it was balanced by the slowing down in Japan and most European countries, notably the United Kingdom, France and Germany.
