我们的目标是顺利地从国际性世界过渡到全球性世界。Our aim is to successfully manage the transition from an international to a global world.
中央集权的官僚庞然大物践踏人民和国家的权利。Centralized bureaucratic behemoths trample on the rights of people and states.
在我们今天流动性强、充满活力、广泛联网的世界上,中央集权统治概念本身与时代不符,是过时的十九世纪心态的残余
The very notion of centralizing hierarchies is itself an anachronism in our fluid, highly dynamic and extensively networked world — an outmoded remnant of nineteenth century mindsets.
各国家除了各自对其社会负有责任以外,还要集体对我们所有国家的公民在这个星球上的共同生活负责。
In addition to the separate responsibilities each state bears towards its own society, states are, collectively, the custodians of our common life on this planet — a life the citizens of all countries share.
尽管全球化通常伴随着体制动乱,但目前没有任何实体能够与国家抗争或取代国家。Notwithstanding the institutional turmoil that is often associated with globalization, there exists no other entity that competes with or can substitute for the state.
极端贫穷是对我们全人类的侮辱。极端贫穷还使许多其他问题恶化。例如穷国尤其是有种族和宗教上严重不平等现象的国家比富国更容易卷入冲突。其中大多数冲突是国内冲突，但这些冲突几乎总会给邻国制造问题，或产生对人道主义援助的需要。
Extreme poverty is an affront to our common humanity. It also makes many other problems worse. For example, poor countries — especially those with significant inequality between ethnic and religious communities — are far more likely to be embroiled in conflicts than rich ones. Most of these conflicts are internal, but they almost invariably create problems for neighbors or generate a need for humanitarian assistance.
