Neo-colonialism is returning to Africa, the global project of human rights is in retreat, and the world trade system is becoming far less open. Brutal dictators go unpunished because their interests are protected by large powers with stakes in their natural resources.
新殖民主义正在重返非洲，全球人权事业正在倒退，而世界贸易体系则相比变得远为封闭。残忍的独裁者逍遥法外，因为他们受到在其自然资源中应有利益的大国保护。扭转这一趋势不仅符合美国的利益，也符合世界的利益。
