Reading this correctly. GDP converted using purchasing power parity rates rather than market exchange rates. Better for comparing living standards between countries; not comparable with the nominal GDP figure. Figures are in current international $. Comparing this series with a different measure of the same concept (for example a nominal figure against a purchasing-power-parity figure) will give misleading results.
