The credit crunch, increases in food prices and the oil crisis have all led to great uncertainty in the global economy. However, some countries have achieved higher growth whereas standards of living have been predicted to plummet in other economies. A special issue for International Journal of Emerging Markets sets out to analyze the following themes:

• •

  The role of India, China and other emerging markets in insulating world economic growth from US financial crisis.

• •

  How the US financial crisis is affecting emerging markets.

• •

  Strategies for companies from emerging markets on how to cope with the current crisis.

• •

  Is there a role for China and India and other emerging economies in insulating the global economy?

• •

  Should policies be domestic or global?

• •

  How should emerging markets cope with the global financial crisis?
