以色列位于地中海东岸,面积仅有2万多平方公里,人口480万。以色列本国资源贫乏,连水资源都不充裕,土地有一半以上是半沙漠地区。自建国40多年以来,人口增长了6倍,加上连年战争,军费开支占本国国民生产总值的15—45％。但以色列却把自己建成了中东地区非产油国家中工业化程度最高和最富裕的国家。现在其国民生产总值已达550亿美元,人均超过11000美元,在全世界也位居20个最发达国家之列。从1948年到1973年,以色列的经济增长率年均在10％以上;1973年到1992
Israel is located on the east coast of the Mediterranean Sea, covering an area of more than 20,000 square kilometers and a population of 4.8 million. Israel’s own poor resources, even the water resources are not sufficient, more than half of the land is semi-desert. Since its establishment more than 40 years ago, the population has increased six-fold. Coupled with the successive years of war, military expenditures have accounted for 15-45% of its GNP. Israel, however, built itself into the country with the highest degree of industrialization and the richest non-oil producing countries in the Middle East. At present, its gross national product has reached 55 billion U.S. dollars and its per capita GDP has exceeded 11,000 U.S. dollars. It ranks among the 20 most developed countries in the world. From 1948 to 1973, Israel’s economic growth rate averaged over 10% annually; from 1973 to 1992
