Source text - Spanish At the start of 2021, the United States is the most powerful, politically divided, and economically unequal of the world’s industrial democracies. China is america’s strongest competitor, a state capitalist, authoritarian, and techno-surveillance regime that is increasingly mistrusted by most g20 countries. Germany and Japan are much more stable, but the most powerful leaders both have had in decades are out (former prime minister abe shinzo) or on their way out (chancellor Angela Merkel). Russia is in decline and blames the us and the west for its woes. and the world is in the teeth of the worst crisis it has experienced in generations.
Happy New Year.
You’d hope a global pandemic would prove an opportunity for the world’s leaders to work together. that was at least mostly true after 9/11 and the 2008 global financial crisis. both were smaller in scale but set against a broadly aligned geopolitical order … and politically functional United States. Not so today.
That matters because just as 2020 was overwhelmingly about healthcare responses to covid-19 (and how much many governments got wrong), 2021 will overwhelmingly be about economic responses to covid-19’s lingering symptoms and scar tissue (debt burdens and misaligned politics), even as vaccines roll out and the healthcare emergency fades. as economic issues come to the fore, there is no global leadership on political models, trade standards, and international architecture to follow.
Translation - English Al inicio de 2021, EU es la más poderosa, dividida políticamente y económicamente desigual de las democracias industriales en el mundo. China es su competidor más fuerte, estado capitalista, autoritario y de régimen de Tecnovigilancia en el cual desconfía cada vez más la mayoría de los países g20. Alemania y Japón son mucho más estables pero los líderes más poderosos que ambos han tenido en las últimas décadas han salido (Abe Shinzo, previo primer ministro de Japón) o va saliendo (Canciller Angela Merkel). Rusia va en declive y culpa a los EU y al Oeste por sus aflicciones, y el mundo está en medio de la peor crisis que ha experimentado en generaciones.
Feliz año Nuevo.
Esperarías que una pandemia global brindaría una oportunidad para los líderes internacionales a trabajar juntos. Esto fue por lo menos una verdad después del 9/11 y de la crisis global financiera en el 2008. Ambos fueron más pequeños en escala pero ocurrieron en un entorno de una orden geopolítica en general en harmonía… y los EU funcionaban políticamente. No es el caso hoy en día.
Esto es importante porque como 2020 se trataba abrumadoramente de las respuestas en cuanto a atención de salud al Covid-19 (y por cuánto muchos gobiernos se equivocaron), 2021 se tratará abrumadoramente de la respuesta económica a las síntomas persistentes del Covid-19 y el tejido cicatrizado (cargas de deuda y políticas mal alineadas), aun cuando las vacunas se distribuyen y la emergencia sanitaria se desvanece. Mientras temas económicos pasan a primer plano, no hay liderazgo global sobre modelos políticos, normas comerciales ni arquitectura internacional a seguir.
