In order to redeem the liberal project, American and European leaders will need to reformulate it in such a way that it can provide convincing solutions to problems such as environmental degradation and economic inequality. This will be no easy task, and one that may be far from policymakers’ minds as they grapple with the current crisis.
为了挽救自由主义，美国和欧洲领导人必须重新设计它，从而使得它能够给类似环境恶化和经济不平等等问题提供令人信服的解决方案。这决非易事，而且由于决策者关注于解决当前危机可能不在他们的头脑考虑之中。但是，除非他们加以考虑，否则，以强调经济和政治自由为核心的自由主义也许无法存活下去。
