text: There are important trade-offs to be made when devising a conceptual framework and providing its statistical contents. The UNRISD version gravitates towards meeting the practical data requirements. Therefore, its comprehensiveness and its ability to represent what social indicators are supposed to indicate may be questioned. None the less, the UNRISD version may be regarded as a pioneering effort towards providing a conceptual framework under the restrictive realism prevailing in least developed countries. 30. The effort of UNRISD on development indicators is continuing with some slight modifications in its emphasis.22 The recent interest of that Institute seems to be in developing a data bank of development indicators rather than in further advancing the early version of its social indicators system. All the statistical series included in its data bank could not necessarily be classifiable as social indicators and_ the relevance of the included indicators in measuring development is still being tested.23 2.

analysis: The text discusses the conceptual framework and statistical contents of social indicators, which are used to measure development. It mentions the efforts of UNRISD and OECD to develop and standardize social indicators, and the challenges of selecting and analyzing indicators. Given the focus on development and social indicators, it is likely that the text falls under a category related to economic development and social issues.
