Two sub periods in the long period of 1950-1979. The sub periods considered are 1950-1953 and 1974-1979. The average GDP growth in 1950-1979 period has been 5% but the average growth rates varied greatly from one sub period to another since the economic conditions and performances were very different in each sub period.
