There are all kinds of guesses as to what might happen and some or many might get it right, for the most part. It is largely guesswork because we are looking at new problems using old models (on paper, in our minds, in discussions). Leaving aside the right or wrong issue, my greatest worry is not local riots, local instability or even the Jasmin revolution. My worry is the assmax phenomenon leading to a global war, which is what could happen when things get bad and the asses who make decisions are looking for a distraction. I conjecture that, more than at any other time in history, we now have the maximum number of asses in leadership positions all over the world. The conditions are ripe. Instead of a Chinese Jasmin revolution I propose that we have a Global Assmax revolution to save the world. Regrettably, the very formation of such an organization will bring about new asses wanting to be in charge, unless people learn to be very conscious of what they do to themselves and others. But sometimes, a smaller evil can buy some time. Time and genuine intelligence can work wonders. I'm only half-serious, but fully afraid. :)
