Although many states now hide behind an alleged universal principle of inviolable state sovereignty, for example, would the international community really want to go back to the old model where states did whatever they wanted to their citizens within the confines of their own borders? Do countries around the world believe that they will be better off if the global trade system breaks down or international shipping lanes become less secure?
尽管有些国家躲藏在所谓的主权不可侵犯的普遍原则上，国际社会是否果真愿意回到国家可以对其人民为所欲为的老模式之中呢？世界各国是否相信，如果全球贸易体系崩溃或者国际航运线路不再安全它们的日子会更好呢？
