Abstract

It is indisputable that increases in per capita income have been considerable since the mid-1960s, although figures for individual years vary according to source.1 Until 1963 Spain could be described as a developing country in terms of the United Nations’ classification of per capita income levels. In 1963 per capita income at market prices crossed the $500 line,2 and by 1971 had doubled to over $1000. In 1975 income per head at market prices was $2574. In order to see this rapid rise in relation to the expansion of other countries, Table 5.1 gives some comparisons of GDP per capita in various countries in 1961, 1970 and 1973.
