what 2009 has left - an interesting map.


Lately, have been left some posts about how life is in 2009, I apologise to my readers for not writing on the real purpose of my blog; just want to leave this last email about the world economic crisis and how badly affected, this map reflect how all countries have been affected during the period 2007-2009,and also want to leave this as testimony as after this event there has been a shift on economic drivers; in the map the clearer the color the less affected the country has been; countries like Brazil, China, ME, seem to be in better position to drive economic growth in the next decades. There are some other regions with potential as Mexico, NaF, East Europe, but due to their complexity of political and social problems chances for economic growth might not materialize.

in contrast to the perception of crisis, the following map shows the index in Confidence towards the Future, it is interesting to contrast the difference between two maps.
