The crisis has surged across the public-private boundary, as the hit to private firms' balance sheets has now imposed heavy new demands on the public sector's finances. It has surged across national borders within the developed world, as the people of Iceland know all too well. And nowthere are reasons to fear that the crisis will swamp emerging markets and other developingcountries, cutting into the considerable economic progress of recent years. The developing world - what it has recently achieved, how these achievements are now at risk, and what it must now do - is the focus of this paper. Understandably, perhaps, until now the focus of policymakers has mostly been on the actions of the governments at the epicenter of the crisis, as well as those of other developed countries like Japan and Korea.
