Grid-based Cartograms
The creation of grid-based cartograms can be one solution to this problem. Instead of a single value per country a much higher number of values based on an equally distributed grid is taken as a basis for the cartogram creation. The resulting cartograms thus give a much more detailed impression of the interal variation of the specific topic even within countries or regions. More details on the methodological background can be found in the paper from the GISRUK 2009 conference (pdf) and in the proceedings from the 2009 ESRI User Conference.
