Richer countries like the United States had a good year and so did some in the Third World like South Korea and India, the World Bank reported yesterday, but incomes in Latin America and southern Africa continued to fall.
The bank said 21 industrial countries, from Luxembourg to the United States, increased their production by a combined 4.2 percent. Since their populations increase slowly, the average income of each citizen went up almost as much.
Some countries in Asia had much bigger increases in output, but populations grow faster there, holding down per capita growth.
