<< which will spread first to Poland >>
Highly unlikely. Poland will likely withstand all these tremors better than even the US can. Unlike many of the western and Asian economies, Polish currency is backed strongly by gold reserves. At the risk of being called a gold bug, I think we will see the end to current currency chaos by returning to some sort of gold standard among many countries.

<< a lengthy period like the 1966 to 1982 period here, where markets worldwide

Just the opposite - the period 1966-1982 was a period of undercapacity, inflation. Overcapacity results in deflation. 2 + 2 = 4.
