In recent years, survivalism has gained more traction due to the high amounts of sovereign debt in [[Western World]] economies and due to the current [[currency war]]s (significant printing of money by various economies) which are designed to weaken the currencies of countries in order to boost their exports.  In addition, the global economy has a lot of interdependency so economic panics/problems can spread across economies. Furthermore, there is a lot of unemployment in many Western countries - particularly among the youth and those who occupy the lower economic stratus of societies. These economic problems have created a lot of turnover in terms of various government leaders around the world.
