The World Economic and Social Survey (WESS) was first issued in 1994, evolving in response to a 1947 mandate by the General Assembly which requested the Secretary-General to submit annual reports on current world economic conditions and trends to the Economic and Social Council. Its precursors were Economic Report: Salient Features of the World Economic Situation from 1945 to 1947; World Economic Report (1948-1954); and World Economic Survey (1955-1993).
