If globalization, which has so enriched the world’s wealthiest countries, is to continue, governments must find ways to increase incomes more evenly. Otherwise, today’s “fencing in” of the rich world will increase the risk of a backlash against free circulation of goods and capital, as well as of political instability punctuated by terrorism.
全球化令世界最富有国家致富。如果想要让它继续，各国政府就必须找到更为均衡地增加收入的途径。不然，当今“隔离”富国将会增加反对商品和资本自由流通以及因恐怖主义而加剧的政治不稳定的风险。富国重新分配全球收入不应当被视为慈善的举动，而是一种开明的维护自我利益之举。
