IPC STAFF PAPER No. 78 NEWLY INDEPENDENT STATES OF THE FORMER SOVIET UNION: Statistical Materials Indexed List Ludmilla Pashina and John Dunlop International Programs Center Population Division Bureau of the Census January 1996 The International Programs Center (IPC) conducts economic and demographic studies on countries throughout the world. As part of IPC, the Eurasia Branch (EAB) specializes in data collection and analysis for all countries of Europe and selected countries of Asia. Most effort, including economic research, is devoted to the countries of the former Soviet Union and China. For over 30 years, EAB and its predecessors have been a leading source of data and analysis for these regions on population dynamics and characteristics, ethnicity, education, health, labor force, industrial output and potential, fuel and energy balances, input-output tables, gross national product and other macroeconomic accounts, and statistical systems. To facilitate this research, EAB maintains an extensive original language library which is a major U. S. Government repository of Soviet and former Soviet republic economic, demographic, and other statistical materials. This bibliography documents all statistical materials received (as of December 15, 1995) since the breakup of the Soviet Union and is designed as a reference tool for analysts working on various aspects of the former Soviet Union. Comments and questions regarding this bibliography should be addressed to Ludmilla Pashina, Eurasia Branch, International Programs Center, Population Division, Bureau of the Census, Washington, D.C. 20233-3700; or call (301) 457-1362.

Though less than in previous years, significant quantities of statistical data have been arriving at EAB from the fifteen countries that comprised the former Soviet Union since its breakup at the end of 1991. However, the quantity and diversity of the materials EAB has been receiving varies tremendously depending on the individual country. This bibliography is a collection of the available reference materials on economic, demographic, and social topics on the Newly Independent States of the former Soviet Union. The bibliography is divided into six sections. Statistical Handbooks (SH) - These books are published only once each year (at most). They include general statistical yearbooks, census volumes, and other topical handbooks. The data in these volumes are often more detailed, but not as timely as data in Press Releases or Periodicals. Press Releases (PR) - These are generally one table documents published by a country's state statistical department. They are usually one to five pages in length. Most Press Releases refer to one specific subject (e.g. wages, gas supply, private farms, consumer prices, etc.). Reports (R) - These short "papers" focus on various topics. Although they often contain tabular materials, they are usually much more descriptive in nature. Each entry gives the title of the report and several key words describing its content if it is not obvious from the title. Periodicals (PS) - These are monthly or quarterly statistical materials on various topics. Each entry gives the title of the periodical as well as several key words describing the information it contains. Other Materials (0) - These are generally non-stat ist ical reference materials. Miscellaneous Tables (TA) - These are individual tables on various topics that are not issued as Press Releases (e.g. input-output tables). Each section is arranged alphabetically by country. Each entry has several items that allow the user to easily locate the desired materials. The following example identifies the major components of each entry: 1 23 4 5 KAZ SH 145 1991 Goskomstat Kazakh 6 %~cJ~~HHocT~;eCTeCTBeHHOe nBMXeHMe M MMrPaUMfl HaCefleHMR Kaaaxc~oACCCP B 1990 r. 7 Size, vital statistics, and migration of population in 1990. 1 - a three (or 4 in the case of USSR) letter code identifying the country (e.g., KAZ for Kazakhstan) 2 - a one or two letter code identifying the type of material it is (e.g., SH for a Statistical Handbook or PR for a Press Release) 3 - an index number 4 - the year the item was published 5 - the publisher or author 6 - the title in the language used in the handbook 7 - the title translated into English. Past users of DB's statistical materials will notice that this bibliography represents a significant change in the way statistical information is cataloged here. Recent developments in the world and evolving needs at IPC precipitated this change. We feel that this new system will better meet users' needs in data retrieval. Because EAR'S statistical library is particularly large, it has not been possible to incorporate materials in EAB's possession that were received before the demise of the Soviet Union. Users should refer to the Bibliography of Soviet 8 Statistical Hcmdbooks, and its updates compiled by Timothy'Heleniak, for information on earlier materials.
