BBC World Debate: Global Economic Shocks: Perfect Storm Ahead?

As the global outlook shifts from uncertainty towards vulnerability, how many more “body blows” can the world economy take? Is a “perfect storm” looming?

In partnership with the World Economic Forum, the BBC World Debate explores the vulnerability of the global economy in 2008, from the perspective of both developed and developing nations.

What will the consequences be if: Oil and commodity prices keep rising? New financial market shock hits the US and the dollar keeps falling? Dramatic corrections burst the bubbles in emerging markets? The economic centre of gravity continues to shift eastwards?
