Geo-World: Conflict & Social Unrest January Update

Resumen

Geopolitical analysis is becoming a key element on the agenda for 2015. With the aim of tracking the evolution of conflicts and social unrest, we introduce the new BBVA Research conflict & social unrest monthly update. During January, the presence of ISIS in the Middle East continued to be a threat while the Russian-Ukrainian crisis escalated, increasing geopolitical worries in the region. In contrast, territorial disputes and geopolitical tensions eased in South-Eastern Asia. Social unrest related to demands for democracy (North Africa), together with terrorism and economic demands (Europe), have also increased.
