What to Look Out for in 2017

麻豆社 Correspondents' Look Ahead

Available for over a year

Donald Trump, climate change, the Iran nuclear deal, Syria, Brexit, the Iran nuclear deal, Cuba, the Middle East - what's going to happen in 2017? Last year when they got together the correspondents were firmly predicting that Marco Rubio would become the Republican presidential candidate 鈥� and that Britain was likely to vote to stay in the EU. So as the saying goes, making predictions is a tricky business鈥� especially about the future. Yet our experts can at least lay out the parameters for what is likely to happen in the spheres of geopolitics, economics and society more widely 鈥� and give us essential tips on what and who to look out for in 2017. Owen Bennett-Jones and 麻豆社 correspondents Lyse Doucet, James Robbins, Kevin Connolly and Jon Sopel forecast what is likely to happen over the coming year.
