I think... --- the effects of global recessions are felt hard by developing and/or vulnerable states because:

1. Most of the economies are undiversified , fragile and functioning on limited resources;

2. Their economies are mostly reliant on commodities, and this market is often volatile and recovery after a disruption can take a few years. The 2008 global recession dealt a hard blow on some of the commodity led economies like Botswana.
