But it would be a mistake to assume that Germany's economic performance vindicates its policymaking. In fact, Germany's current economic dominance has been built on a policy framework that stands in direct opposition to that championed by former Chancellor Ludwig Erhard, the father of its post-World War II “economic miracle."
但如果就此认为经济表现证明了决策正确性将是个错误。事实上，德国目前的经济霸权地位背后的政策构架与二战后“经济奇迹”的缔造者，前总理路德维希·艾哈德所倡导的构架截然不同。
