a little hypocrisy(虚伪) is not in itself a serious problem. the real problem is that western governments continue to insist that they retain control of the key global economic and financial institutions while drifting away from global liberalization. look at what’s happening at the imf (international monetary fund). the europeans have demanded that keep the post of managing director, but all too often, western officials put their own interests above everyone else’s when they dominate these global institutions.#-L[S ]r%u#6=!d=b!6(本 文来 源于 考研一方MBA/EMBA/MPA /]#-L[S ]r%u#6=!d=b!6
