What is increasingly apparent is that China’s leaders want the economic growth that capitalism produces, but without the downturns that come with it. They want the innovation that an open society generates, but without the intellectual freedom that defines it.
一个日益明显的现象是中国领导人希望获得资本主义所制造的经济增长，但不想获得随之一起到来的减速。他们希望获得开放社会所产生的创新，但不想获得随之一起到来的作为其标志的知识自由。中国必须付出一些代价。
