【TED】了解中国的崛起

21分钟的简单演讲，在TED伦敦沙龙会上，《当中国统治世界》的作者经济学家马丁·雅克Martin Jacques言简意赅地讲述了他眼中的中国西方世界，尤其是欧洲的衰落。

演讲最后几分钟的内容摘录如下：

for 2oo years，the world was essentially governed by a fragment of the human population. That's what Europe and North America represented.The arrival of countries like China and India between them 38 percent of the world's population and others like Indonesia and Brazil and so on,represent the most important single act of democratization in the last 200 years.Civilization and cultures, which had been ignored, which had no voice,which were not listened to, which were not known about,will have a different sort of representation in this world. As humanists, we must welcome, surely, this transformation, and we will have to learn about these civilizations.This big ship here was the one sailed in by Zheng He in the early 15th century on his great voyages around the South China Sea, the East China Sea and across the Indian Ocean to East Africa.The little boat in front of it was the one in which, 80 years later, Christopher Columbus crossed the Atlantic. Or look carfully at this silk scroll made by ZhuZhou in 1368. I think they're playing golf. Christ, the Chinese even invented golf. Welcome to the future.

200年来，世界基本上是被人类的一部分人所管辖。这就是被欧洲和北美所代表的一小撮人。新兴国家的崛起，像中国和印度，它们占世界人口的百分之三十八，和其他国家如印尼和巴西等等，他们代表了在过去200年间最重要的人类活动。民主化进程曾被忽视，没有发言权的文明和文化，人们对此不了解，没听说过的文明和文化，它们将用与众不同的声音代言它们自身。作为人道主义者，我们必定要欢迎这种转型。我们还得学习这些文明。这儿的大船，是在15世纪早期郑和下西洋时，航行的船，它穿过中国东海，南海， 然后穿行印度洋到达东非。这前面的小船，是80年后，克里斯托弗·哥伦布穿行大西洋的船只。或者仔细看看这幅由ZhuZhou在1368年创作的绢轴国画，我认为他们在打高尔夫。上帝啊，竟然是中国人发明了高尔夫球。欢迎来到未来。

马丁·雅克在《当中国统治世界》中写到：

“中国绝对不会走上西方民主化的道路，只会选择一条不同于西方世界的发展模式；中国的崛起将改变的不仅仅是世界经济格局，还将彻底动摇我们的思维和生活方式。”

中国影响世界的一极是庞大的经济力量，另一极是根植于中华文明的又符合未来世界潮流的文化和价值观。改革开放近40年的实践，诞生的本土思维观念，前导未来世界发展潮流，中间与互联网时代结合，后承几千年文明积淀，是中国崛起的绝对核心力量。

阴阳哲学，混序管理等，必将发扬光大于环球世界。
