On one hand, China’s economic revolution has helped position it in the world as a confident powerhouse of trade, a more responsible global powerbroker, and even as a reassuring military presence. On the other hand, China remains trapped by a past and a mindset steeped in a sense of victimization, which tempts it to export blame for internal problems.
一方面，中国的经济革命帮助中国找到了自己在世界上的位置：可靠的贸易强国，更有责任感的全球权力代理，甚至是令人放心的军事力量。但另一方面，中国依然为过去所困，其思维方式充满了受害意识，诱使其将内部问题归咎于外部责任。
