But now, I have another problem in this context. If I use text in the
SELECT statement (so, that the final output gives me the name of the
selected variables, plus the year and the value) than I get this
error message: ERROR:  failed to find conversion function from
"unknown" to text

[squint...]  Try casting those literals to text explicitly, ie
SELECT 'pop_density'::text AS name.  There's some code in there
that makes this work for simple UNION cases, but maybe not so much
for select with a left join and order by and limit inside a union :-(

You guys are really great! Yep, it works like that like a charm...

Thanks a lot for your help!
