List of countries by GNI (nominal) per capita in the context of "Per capita income"

The Japanese economic miracle (Japanese: 高度経済成長, romanized: Kōdo keizai seichō) refers to a period of economic growth in post–World War II Japan. It generally refers to the period from 1955, around which time the per capita gross national income of the country recovered to pre-war levels, and to the onset of the 1973 oil crisis.

Before the war, Japan had achieved industrialisation from the second half of the 19th century, but light industry and agriculture remained the backbone of the economy, and poverty was widespread among the working class and tenant farmers. Heavy industry was primarily focused on the military, such as aviation, shipbuilding, and military vehicles, rather than the production of civilian goods. The Second World War resulted in the loss of all its colonial possessions, and both the mainland's industrial capabilities and population were heavily damaged. After the war, the government was deep in debt, while the people suffered privation of vital supplies, which inevitably caused hyperinflation.

This is a list of countries by gross national income (GNI) per capita growth. This list is not to be confused with GDP per capita growth, GNI per capita or GDP growth.

The rate of GNI per capita growth in annual percentage according to the World Bank for last available year is shown in below table. These values of GNI per capita growth are corrected for inflation, but not adjusted for purchasing power parity.
