Recent popular demonstrations, from the Middle East to Israel to the UK, and rising popular anger in China – and soon enough in other advanced economies and emerging markets – are all driven by the same issues and tensions: growing inequality, poverty, unemployment, and hopelessness. Even the world’s middle classes are feeling the squeeze of falling incomes and opportunities.
最近的群众抗议，从中东、以色列到英国，以及中国日益上升的不满情绪——很快会传染到其他发达和新兴经济体——根源都一样：不平等加剧、贫困、失业和绝望情绪。就连全世界中等阶层也感到收入缩水，机会稀缺。
