新自由主义的“病”和“命”

On the Defects and Destiny of Neo-liberalism

新自由主义垂而不死,在当今国际社会依然具有强大的话语权,是一种“主流”的发展观念。对其批判,就必须找到其“病灶”,从而勘破其历史命运。新自由主义是对现代自由主义的“反革命”,要求回到古典自由主义。新自由主义的“病”在于要回到过去,恢复资本的权力,是在为国际垄断资本、金融寡头代言。如此,它造成了社会的严重不公和贫困问题,漠视了人的幸福和尊严。新自由主义不会甘心自动退出历史舞台,还会继续存在,但人类要做的恰恰就是找到一条更好的发展道路来取代新自由主义,人类命运共同体思想为此提供了有益借鉴。

Neo-liberalism still has some vitality and has a strong voice in the international community. We must criticize it effectively. Neo-liberalism is a “counter-revolution” to modern liberalism, requiring a return to classical liberalism. The fundamental defect of neo-liberalism is to return to the past and restore the power of capital, which is to speak for the international monopoly capital and financial oligarchy. In this way, it has brought about serious injustice and poverty, ignoring human happiness and dignity. Neo-liberalism will not withdraw from the stage of history voluntarily. What we need to do is to find a better way to replace neo-liberalism. The idea of Community of a Shared Future for Mankind provides a useful reference for this problem.
