Includes bibliographical references and tables.
Since 1990, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has been providing (and Oxford University Press has been publishing) annual Human Development Reports that set out the basic social and economic indicators for the nations of the world. The Arab Human Development Report 2002, published this summer by the UNDP's Regional Bureau of Arab States (RBAS), is the first regional report of its kind. Focusing exclusively on the Arab world, the Report carefully dissects and analyzes the region's strengths and failings and explains why the region has fallen behind so much of the world. The Report argues that the root cause for Arab underdevelopment is threefold three deficits: a deficits: a deficit of freedom, a deficit of women's rights, and a deficit of knowledge.
