MADISON, WI (December 12, 2022) — As another tumultuous year draws to a close, the world is wondering what may come next. How will international conflicts and alliances continue to impact our daily lives? How will money influence policy-making and political campaigns? Will the global economy finally begin to stabilize, or will current volatility continue? What sorts of trends, influences, and outcomes do experts anticipate for the coming year?
