Zhao Ziyang’s death reminds us not only of how unjustly he was treated, but of how lopsided China’s reforms have been. For China’s “miracle” to truly become miraculous, Party leaders could do worse than study the record of a man whose legacy they now seem eager to push into oblivion.
赵紫阳之死不仅提醒了我们他曾经遇到过怎样的不公正待遇，而且再一次让我们想起了中国的改革是多么不平衡。为了使中国“奇迹”能变成真正的奇迹，党的领导人没有比研究这个他们现在急于忘记的传奇更为有效的方法。
