Bogdan Bogdanov
Abstract: In October 2014, a conference in Brussels, Belgium, on „Moving „beyond GDP” in European economic governance” took place. The conference was attended by high-level experts, statisticians and politicians. The papers presented are of high scientific level and explicitly outline the problems of socio-economic development in Europe and worldwide.
In a way the conference in Brussels can be regarded as a continuation of the conference which took place in February 2014 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, on "European framework for measuring progress." Participation of scientists and senior managers in the structures of the European Union contributed to the clear delineation of critical issues for the development of the countries of Europe and the world. The conference identified some specific measures in relation to the work and activities of statistics as a science and practice in formulating rational socio-economic development policies.
