No matter what criterion one uses, Japan's economy remains the most closed among OECD countries and one of the most closed in the world. Not only is foreign capital conspicuously absent, but so are foreign managers, workers, intellectuals, and ideas.
无论以何种尺度衡量，日本的经济仍然不仅是经合组织中最封闭的，也是世界各国中最封闭的。不仅外资难得一见，而且外国经理人、劳动力、知识分子和思想也踪影皆无。大学、智囊团和媒体大部分都是与世隔绝的产物。
