In today’s world, it looks as if the new winners are big states with large populations and rapid growth: Brazil, Russia, India, and China (BRICs), in addition to the United States. These dynamic giants terrify the wealthy populations of the industrialized world with the potential power of their low-cost competition, cheap products, and outsourcing of services.
在当今世界中，好像新的赢家是那些人口众多、增长迅速的大国，也就是巴西、俄国、印度和中国(即所谓的“BRICs”国家)，外加美国。这些富有活力的巨人们用潜在的低成本竞争、廉价产品以及外包服务来恐吓工业化国家中富有的人口。
