Your map is very good, thanks. It is a very useful tool. As the map shows, there are a lot of countries which are experiencing at least some unrest. The map also notes that places where no unrest is seen still have inflationary triggers, including the United States and Europe. There are still some people alive here in the USA from the massive unrest of the 1930s, which forced the government to adopt much of the long-term aspects of the New Deal policy. In Europe, however, there is a large degree of unrest at this moment. It remains to be seen whether this will happen in the USA or deepen at all in Europe. The role of Tunisia and related events in the Third World in adding to this atmosphere remains to be seen. |

aren't Tunisia type events what shape the world? From what I've read, good for them, BenAli sounds like a real loser

There are not many people from the vulnerable developing countries on PA. We have some PA members from Iran, which already had a strong civil unrest at the last elections. But I don't know anyone here from Tunisia, Algeria, Egypt, Yemen, etc. We have trackstoni from Jordan if I'm not wrong (hope he's well).
BTW here's a Google map of the unrest around the world (the fire and policemen icons; the cash icons are about financial problems that might lead to unrest): http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=203015973545354677871.000499b16caba320e204a&ll=9.102097,3.164063&spn=127.764478,225&z=2&source=embed |

Could barely fit what I wanted
So I supplied two soft answers and two hard answers, rather than just yes or no. Edited by RoyFairbank - January 27 2011 at 20:38 |
