In order to make progress, the youth-led movements that drove the Arab Spring must translate their shared principles into effective political structures, and choose leaders who are capable of placing the search for consensus ahead of personal ambition. If they succeed, the Arab world may finally have an alternative to rule by generals or mullahs.
为了取得进展，推动了阿拉伯之春的年轻人领导的运动必须让他们的共同原则转化为有效的政治结构，并选出有能力将寻找共识置于个人野心之前的领导人。如果他们获得了成功，那么阿拉伯世界或许最终能够找出将军或毛拉统治的替代方案。即使他们没能赢得权力，如此替代方案的出现也必将影响阿拉伯世界未来多年的日程。
