These emerging economies – call them the Globalizers – constitute a second tier of about 30 poor and middle-income countries (including China and India), with per capita GDP growth rates of 3.5% or more, and a total population of 3.2 billion, or roughly 50% of the world’s population. These countries have experienced unprecedented levels of sustained economic growth that may well enable them to replace the “Affluents” as engines of the world economy.
这些新兴经济体让我们称它们为全球化者，有大约30个中低收入国家（包括中国和印度）组成了第二层，其人均国民收入以3.5%甚至更高的速度增长，总人口32亿，或者说大约占世界人口的50%。这些国家经历着前所未有的持续经济增长，从而很可能使它们替代“富裕国家”成为世界经济的引擎。
