Each year, Wikistrat asks its analysts to look ahead and predict major events and trends that will shape the world over the next year.
Our “Predictions for 2016” report released today is based on an online crowdsourced exercise Wikistrat conducted earlier this month. The predictions made by our analysts include:
Vladimir Putin will be forced to choose between Russia’s oligarchs and the public.
Iran’s regime will crack down as the country votes in parliamentary elections.
China may resort to unexpected measures to boost its economy.
The EU will not break up.
India will become a full member of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation.
ISIS will intensify its terrorism campaign outside the caliphate.
Technological changes will be greater than expected and range in nature.
Among the analysts who contributed to this report are: Mark Galeotti, a Professor of Global Affairs at New York University’s Center for Global Affairs; Dr. Raz Zimmt, a Research Fellow at the Alliance Center for Iranian Studies at Tel Aviv University; Hugh Stephens, former Senior Vice President, Public Policy (Asia-Pacific) for Time Warner; Pascale Siegel, the President of Insight Through Analysis; and Dr. Bruce Wald, former Director for all NRL C4I and military space technology and systems at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory.
