2016 is over, and it’s thus time to review the most significant events that occurred in each region and prognosticate how they may influence the coming year. The research is divided into 12 separate sections which will cover the entire world, with individual attention being given specifically to the EU, Mideast, Central Asia, South Asia, ASEAN, Northeast Asia, China, Russia, Africa, Latin America, and the US.
Each chapter will begin with a brief summary that sets the stage for analyzing the three main trends in the examined region, the aim of which is to provide a comprehensive overview of the most crucial developments which have occurred and are predicted to progressively unfold over the next 12 months. Finally, the last part will build off of the aforementioned research in concisely conveying the three most important global trends which can be observed all across the world.
For self-explanatory reasons related to time and space constraints, the work will of course be unable to touch upon each and every single event of significance which took place across the past year. Therefore, the reader should kindly understand that the following review and forecast is a curated list assembled as a result of the author’s intuitive judgement and in accordance with the interpretative geopolitical framework which he’s expounded upon in his works for Katehon, Oriental Review, and Sputnik.
