International Organization Bibliography and Resources (Volume 4, 6th edition).

Statistics, Visualizations and Patterns (Volume 5, 450 pages): out in December 2001. This volume is a major effort to recover and reconcile statistics from all past editions of the Yearbook (and statistical studies based on it in Transnational Associations) and to present them with appropriate graphs and other techniques. For this reason the UIA has allocated funds in excess of those provided by SAUR to scan, format and correct the data. Of particular importance is the fact that since the 1950s the statistical base has evolved with new categories of organizations requiring much effort to reconcile apparent inconsistencies. In addition to graphically representing tabular data, the publication will also include an extensive, and unique, range of images of networks of organization, problems and strategies.
