特朗普政府的好战与全球经济的波动相结合，大大加速了国际运动的发展：抛弃美元作为世界储备货币。
BEIJING -- In January, President Donald Trump took to Twitter to denounce Pakistan’s commitment to fighting terrorism. Twenty-four hours later, Pakistan’s central bank announced that it no longer would use the U.S. dollar in international transactions, and would instead switch to the Chinese yuan. Four months later, in response to the Trump
经济学家和金融家们担心财政部将不得不印刷越来越多的钱来偿还债务，最终使货币贬值并引发恶性通货膨胀，类似于德国在第一次世界大战后试图偿还其繁重的外债时所经历的情况。
NEW YORK -- On the afternoon of December 31, 1999, I boarded a flight from Chicago O’Hare airport for San Francisco International and found myself seated next to a bear of a man, who, at 6 feet 6 inches tall, and more than 300 pounds, squeezed into the middle seat of an emergency row. His unkempt sandy blonde beard contrasted with a ratty,
处理严重经济衰退的新自由主义方法可能很快就会产生政治危机，让人回想起导致希特勒80年前崛起的债务危机。政治阶层似乎注意到：股市飙升和薪水萎缩所反映的严重不平等是不可持续的。
NEW YORK -- The revelation that the Dow Jones industrial average and the Standard and Poor's stock index closed at historic highs this past Thursday afternoon reminded me of an early autumn afternoon a dozen years ago in a glorious San Francisco apartment high in the sky. The apartment, perched atop a rise in the city’s Russian Hill
Ben Jealous的糟糕运动反映了非洲裔美国政体的惯性，这种政体仅在一代人之前就开始行动，并开始重组那些对有色人种完全没有反应的中心城市。
BALTIMORE -- At first glance, Ben Jealous appears to be a good bet to become Maryland’s first black governor. Running in a blue state -- where Democrats outnumber Republicans two to one and nearly one in three voters is African-American -- against an incumbent Republican governor, Jealous is a liberal Democrat, a son of Baltimore, and the former
911事件后，布什有一句名言：“为什么他们讨厌我们？”答案可能是在28年前的另一个9/11事件中发现的，当时智利的美国在走向帝国的道路上迈出了决定性的一步。
NEW YORK -- Of apartheid South Africa’s myriad atrocities, one of the most medieval was a system in which white settlers plied their farmworkers with alcohol in lieu of wages. Known by the Afrikaans word for tot, or drink, the dop not only kept workers docile -- and wages low -- but, in fostering widespread and chronic dependency, the practice
企业高管们越来越自信地向民主党和工会领导人求爱，共同努力挫败跨种族劳工运动，这是唯一一场与富豪们争夺平局的战斗力量。
MINNEAPOLIS -- (Analysis) Three scenes from America’s class war: In 1897, the president of Fulton Bag and Cotton Mills in Atlanta hired 20 Negro women to work in the folding department of one of the mills. The other 1,400 workers, all white, promptly walked off the job in protest. According the historian Philip S. Foner in his book Organized
美国的白人至上主义类似于一种宗教崇拜：由于无知和恐惧，一群临终的白人认为非白人的方式与塞勒姆的村民认为他们为了练习巫术而在火刑柱上燃烧的女巫大致相同。
I will state flatly that the bulk of this country’s white population impresses me, and has so impressed me for a very long time, as being beyond any conceivable hope of moral rehabilitation. They have been white, if I may so put it, too long. They have been married to the lie of white supremacy too long. The effect in their personalities, their
