Abstract

The article reflects the basic problems of “measuring” of sustainable development indexes and construction of the system of adequate indicators for its quantitative estimation. A canonical analysis is conducted on the basis of statistical data of official sources for the exposure of basic dependences between the set of the most authoritative rating of sustainable development of the states and most widespread measuring devices of socio-economic development of the world countries. An optimal canonical model is built.
