This volume offers a comprehensive analysis of sustainable development paths, based on UN 2030 SDGs, using a deep, comparative, and standardized analysis of nine key indicators from official statistics. The book offers an introductory chapter that sets the stage and provides background for what is to come, followed by a chapter covering each of the nine indicators selected. The indicators' trends were evaluated over time (1960-2020) using World Bank data. The authors analyzed the apparent and latent dynamics of the nine indicators country by country, covering at least 100 countries per indicator. Offered here are descriptive statistics, figures, maps, graphs, bivariate correlations, and multivariate statistical tools in order to clarify the role of each indicator in specific sustainable development paths all over the world. The book provides novel tools for teaching as well as for academics and practitioners.
