Three years after the global economy’s near-collapse, the feeble recovery has already petered out in most developed countries, whose economic inertia will drag down the rest. Pundits decry a “double-dip” recession, but in some countries the first dip never ended: Greek GDP has been dipping for three years.
经济是这一战略的典型领域。全球经济几乎崩溃已经过去三年了，发达国家的萎靡复苏难以为继，而它们的疲软又拉了其他国家的后腿。专家们大谈“二次探底”衰退，但某些国家从来没有从第一次探底中恢复过来：希腊GDP已经连续三年下降了。
