This stunted system springs from Greece’s corporatist values, which emphasize social protection, solidarity instead of competition, and discomfort with uncontrolled change. These values may well be beneficial for family life; but, even with the best of intentions, they are a recipe for a static economy and stultified careers.
这一拙劣的体系诞生于希腊的社团主义价值。社团主义价值强调社会保护、用团结代替竞争，不愿面对不受控制的变化。这些价值或许对家庭生活很有裨益；但是，即使初衷良好，也产生不出有活力的经济和蒸蒸日上的事业。
