CAMBRIDGE – When I was in Chile earlier this month, I was impressed by the contrast between the palpable success of its long-standing free-market policies and the current agenda of its leftist president, Michelle Bachelet. How this contrast is resolved will be important not only to the country’s more than 17 million people, but also to everyone who regards Chile as a model of what sound economic policies have been able to achieve.
发自剑桥 ——当我在本月初访问智利时，印象最深的莫过于长期自由市场政策为这个国家所带来的切实提升与其左派总统米切尔·巴切莱特（Michelle Bachelet）当前议程之间的反差。而如何消除这种反差将极为重要，不仅关乎该国1700万国民的福祉，还将影响到那些将智利视为合理经济政策成功典范的人们。
