The set of internationally comparable indicators provided here enables countries to assess their economic performance and structural policies in a broad range of areas. In addition, this issue contains five analytical chapters covering: . Why working hours vary across OECD countries . What the scope is to improve performance of primary and secondary schools in OECD countries . How policies can enhance investment in higher education . How geographical factors affect GDP per capita . What impact domestic regulation has on international trade in services
