Socio-economic statistics and public policy : a new role for microsimulation modeling / by Michael C. Wolfson. : CS11-0019/81E

In this paper, we briefly review the state of frameworks for social and economic statistics, including the kinds of socio-economic indicators users may want. These indicators are motivated first in general terms from basic principles and intuitive concepts, leaving aside for the moment the practicalities of their construction. We then show how a coherent structure of such indicators might be assembled.--Abstract
