By most measures, reports of America’s declining power, relative to the rest of the world, have again proved premature. The U. S. economy increasingly seems to be on an upswing. The United States remains among the world’s safest and most attractive investments. The dollar, once slated for oblivion, seems destined to remain the world’s reserve currency for some time to come.
Meanwhile, the "rise of the rest" assumption has failed to materialize as expected. For all of America’s problems at home—the fiscal crisis, political gridlock, intense partisanship and weak presidential leadership—other great powers have debilitating problems of their own that, in some cases, promise to grow more severe.
If, however, by the normal measures of relative power things have not changed as much as some predicted, the international order certainly has entered a period of uncertainty and flux. In the United States in recent years, a great many Americans are questioning the nature and extent of their nation’s involvement in the world.
It is not just the Great Recession or even unhappiness with the U. S. experiences in Iraq and Afghanistan that are driving disenchantment with what Americans used to like to call their global leadership. The old rationale for that deep global involvement is increasingly forgotten or actively rejected by Americans who wonder why the United States needs to play such an outsize role on the world stage.
选项
答案
按大多数标准衡量,有关美国与世界上其他国家相比,其国力正在日见衰退的说法,是言之过早了。美国经济仍不断呈现上升的趋势。美国现在仍然是世界上最安全、最具吸引力的投资地之一。美元一度被判定会被世人遗忘,如今看来注定要在未来一段时间继续充当世界储备货币。 与此同时,所谓“其他国家在崛起”的说法,却并未像预期的那样成为现实。尽管美国国内存在各自各样的问题——财政危机、政治僵局、党派偏见严重、总统领导不力,但其他大国自身也有着严重的问题,其中有些问题今后会更趋严重。 然而,尽管按一般标准对相对实力进行衡量,世界格局并未像某些人预想的那样发生巨变,但毫无疑问,国际秩序已进入不确定和不稳定的时期。在美国,近些年来很多美国人对本国参与国际事务的性质及程度提出质疑。 美国人过去常说美国在发挥全球领导作用,但促使美国人摆脱这种幻想的还不仅仅是经济大衰退或对美国在伊拉克和阿富汗的惨痛经历感到不满。过去支持如此大力度参与全球事务的逻辑,如今日益被美国人遗忘,甚至遭到强力抵制,因为这些美国人搞不明白,美国为什么要在世界舞台上扮演这种超大型角色。
