看看美国的历史，或者德国、英国、日本的历史。这些国家在崛起时期都参与了很多战争。换句话说，中国在这一时期的发展过程中是非常克制的。
now look at american history, or german history, or british history, or japanese history, all of these countries were involved in many wars during the equivalent period of their historical development. china, in other words, has exercised extraordinary restraint during this period of its development.
目前的国际体系无法长期存在

1980年，世界的经济中心在这里。
in 1980, the center of the global economy was here.

and then slowly in the subsequent 30 odd years, it shifted. and today, it"s somewhere about here. that"s the center of the global economy. in those days, the global economy was essentially western europe and the united states.
