This paper uses a "mystery client" approach and visits the websites of national statistical offices and international microdata libraries to assess whether foundational microdata sets for countries in the Middle East and North Africa region are collected, up to date, and made available to researchers. The focus is on population and economic censuses, price data and consumption, labor, health, and establishment surveys. Following the exercise, a new microdata access indicator that measures the degree of opennes of microdata and the ease with which microdata users can understand and navigate the websites of national statistical offices is presented. The results show that about half of the expected core data sets are being collected and that only a fraction is made available publicly. As a consequence, many summary statistics, including national accounts and welfare estimates, are outdated and of limited relevance to decision makers. Additional investments in microdata collection and publication of the data once collected are strongly advised. National statistical offices in the region should make considerable improvements to the outlook of their websites to make them more user friendly. Specifically, microdata libraries and updated survey calendars should be a standard feature of the websites to ensure easy access to available microdata.

In welchem Verhältnis stehen Wissenschaft und Politik? Die transnationale Geschichte der halbamtlichen Statistikkongresse des 19. Jahrhunderts beschreibt die Entstehung, Wechselwirkungen und Widersprüche einer janusköpfigen Verbindung. Sie zeigt, dass die statistische Wissenschaft seit ihrer institutionellen Einbettung in den modernen Verwaltungsstaat nur noch über eine eingeschränkte Autonomie verfügte und gerade deshalb zu einer der weltweit wichtigsten Ressourcen administrativer Entscheidungsfindung aufsteigen konnte. Ermöglicht wurde ihre steile politische Karriere aber erst durch die Initiative einer kleinen Gruppe enthusiastischer Statistikexperten, welche sich der Idee verschrieben hatten, die bis dato bestehenden nationalen Beschränkungen ihrer quantitativen Gesellschaftsbeschreibungen nachhaltig zu überwinden. Sie gründeten 1853 einen der ersten internationalen Wissenschaftskongresse der Weltgeschichte, dessen öffentliche Strahlkraft und methodologische Standardisierungsdiskurse am Fallbeispiel des zusammenwachsenden Deutschen Reiches analysiert werden.

This Special Issue on ‘Sustainability and Visitor Management in Tourist Historic Cities’ explores new trends and methods that contribute to sustainable practices for tourism planning and management in historic cities. Thanks to the differentiated approaches adopted by the authors, the Special Issue reflects on the environmental, physical, cultural, and social effects that tourism activity provokes in tourist historic cities. Considering the present debate on tourism in historic cities, there is a special focus on resident perceptions and the social problems and conflicts associated with various tourist activities that have emerged in recent years. New methodologies and sources to measure tourism impacts are also addressed in this book, especially the use of big data technology, another relevant topic. Papers include one literature review and six case studies in the historic cities of Seville and Toledo (Spain), Venice and Matera (Italy), and Porto (Portugal) and Popayán (Colombia). This Special Issue provides practical tools and policy recommendations to measure tourism impacts and promote sustainable management in tourist historic cities.
