Over time, advanced economies will need to invest in human capital, skills and social safety nets to increase productivity and enable workers to compete, be flexible and thrive in a globalized economy. The alternative is – like in the 1930s - unending stagnation, depression, currency and trade wars, capital controls, financial crisis, sovereign insolvencies, and massive social and political instability.
将来，发达经济体需要扩大投资于人力资本、技能培训与社会安全网络，以提高生产率和工人竞争力，灵活适应经济全球化并从中受益。如若不然，就会重演20世纪30年代的噩梦：无穷无尽的停滞、萧条、货币和贸易战争、资本管制、金融危机、主权破产和社会政治动荡。
