Four U.S. Intelligence Agencies Produced Extensive Reports on Afghanistan, but All Failed to Predict Kabul’s Rapid Collapse - WSJ
 
“We had never heard of bin Laden. How was this linked to us?”: what 9/11 was like for Afghans | The Economist
 
treating law as if its explanatory power were almost unlimited, as for example when the huge growth in the number of civil wars since 1945 is attributed to the fact that ‘these conflicts are not prohibited by the pact.’
 
Everything that has been achieved can be rescinded, forgotten, tossed away. That is the message Hathaway and Shapiro want to convey.
 
【冷战后美国处于单极时代,美国以军力取代外交的欣慰大增,奥巴马强化了这一趋势】
【奥巴马这么做,一方面是担心恐怖活动,这是情有可原的,另一方面也是为了面子,不愿意整天打打杀杀,不停地见到尸体,把军事行动转变成无人机暗杀,军方都不需要通告大家,事发了也不见报,美国老百姓高高兴兴继续过日子,政府也没用压力。这是政治方面的考虑,也情有可原。关键的问题,是奥巴马在公开场合把这种新的军事行动描述成一种人道的军事行动,把美国打点成规则、惯例和人道的捍卫者,这才是真正的矛盾。】
 
That was far from the truth. Obama himself had been so upset by excesses in the new incursion he ordered into Yemen that he stopped the drone attacks there for a year between 2010 and 2011
 
第一:不精确,第二,不确定,第三,法官侩子手
 
In just the first few months of 2009, after Obama took the oath of office, the initial metamorphosis of American war into humane form was achieved. As the worst sins of the prior administration were disowned, Obama’s lawyers claimed authority to continue war indefinitely across space and time, devising formal legal frameworks for targeted killings
 
But that lawyerliness often served as an elaborate rationalisation process. The president’s men and women, Savage has written, “were trying to fight al-Qaida while adhering to what they saw as the rule of law”. Though what they saw as the rule of law meant little more than self-regulation, their commitment to humane standards of fighting war
 
He was a politician whose career depended on protecting the American people. But not only did Obama design a far bigger and more encompassing form of war than necessary, and not only did he undermine the US’s earlier commitments to a legal order consecrating peace to do so
 
Then Trump went on to repeat the very same pirouette from anti-war candidate to endless war president that Obama had performed. And now Joe Biden risks doing the same.
 
*************
 
At its heart lies a convincing line of argument: recent efforts to humanize war by reducing its lethality have come at the expense of normalizing violence
Whereas the ambition of the nineteenth century peace movements and their successors was to outlaw war—or at the very least to establish forms of legal arbitration or international institutions to radically limit its occurrence—recent decades have been dominated by efforts to regulate the conduct of war.
 “We had made a moral choice to prioritize humane war, not a peaceful globe”
remarkable change principally to the closing years of the Vietnam War
朝鲜战争是最不受约束,最残忍的战争,美国(双方)使用了一切可以使用的手段,造成的伤亡密度之大,比二战有过之无不及,但越战是促成国际法转变的契机,一是美国对自己在越战中形象的羞愧,Potentially endless violence has been ushered in under the guise of legal regulation. “In our time, swords have not been beaten into ploughshares. They have been melted down for drones”
 
美国以各种人道名义出兵干预他国,到了20世纪末,成了人道主义干预原则的所谓“保护责任”(Responsibility to Protect),就是说一旦发生人道主义灾难,如种族灭绝,那么世界在联合国倡导下有“责任”武力干预,当然这种干预主要是西方的武装干预,成了美国、北约和西方出兵的道德依据
 
Moyn contends that the “self-humanization of the [American] military under law” was arguably the most important post-Vietnam factor in the emergence of humane war.
 
Spencer Ackerman: Today’s Crisis in Kabul Is Direct Result of Decades of U.S. War & Destabilization | Democracy Now!
The Kakarta Method
Transcript: Ezra Klein Interviews Spencer Ackerman - The New York Times
But basically, what I’m getting at is the longer the war on terror goes on, the longer these mechanisms, these tools exist, it’s a matter of time until there are people in these relevant positions who simply say, you know, particularly if I’m a senior lawyer at one of these agencies, I’ll come up with whatever pretext I need to come up with to say my operations are lawful.
This is exactly what happened during the Bush administration when an attorney named John Yoo and another named David Addington decided to essentially retcon the laws about torture and about surveillance to allow these things to happen. This happened in the Obama administration when attorneys named Marty Lederman and David Barron decided to manipulate and retcon the laws to permit the assassination of an American citizen. We see with Trump not discontinuity, but a whole lot of continuity in an uncomfortable way that I write this book to reckon with
A deeply tragic missed opportunity that put millions of people in peril that entrenched lawlessness in American national security, and then from their American government, that told itself that it was lawful.
Barack Obama really makes the forever war forever,
under Barack Obama, the opposite occurs
The N.S.A. grows more powerful, often by inertia, by allowing its tools not only to develop in sophistication, but now after a 2008 surveillance law that Barack Obama votes for knowing that he will very likely soon be president
It kills potential combatants. In particular, it kills what it calls military age males, people between, essentially, the ages of 16 and 50-odd something. And the point I’m trying to drive at is that throughout all of this, not only does Obama expand the aperture and the operations of the war on terror while viewing himself as winding all of this down, but he does so through a particularly perilous way, which is to say that he empowers a lot of lawyers to set up belts of process that the previous administration, as well as the subsequent administration, don’t bother with
 
从生活在大家都知道,有些行为是可以通过规章制度,用不近人情的方式来处理的,而且现代社会需要这种没有人情,公事公办的制度,但夺走一个人的生命是绝对不能属于这种行为的。奥巴马正是通过自己“诺奖的光环”,以为自己高高站在人道立场上行使这个世界唯一的超级大国的特权,而且是用一种人道的手段去实行的,这就把杀戳当成行政
建立反恐机制
反恐信念的常态化,法律的常态化
意识形态(敌我,伊斯兰基督教,有色人种白人,外夷国人)法律化
战争机械化,杀人游戏化(因为美国的高技术武器是个不对称的手段,
这种永久战是为了反恐,就是维护美国的安全,还是投射美国势力的手段?
反恐是把战线推到敌人家门口,这种用帝国武力威慑来反恐的方式,必然是以压制他人为手段的,压制他人迟早会产生新的敌人,所以这种前沿反恐的策略的逻辑就是永久战,所以不是因为威胁美国的恐怖活动永远存在,所以美国必须打一场永久战,而是美国的政策会不断地制造新的敌人,这些敌人打不过美国,只能以恐怖分子的身份出现,所以这一政策给奠定了这是一场永远也不会结束的战争,这一政策制造了这场永久战
奥巴马一切的所作所为,都加强了美国反恐战争这一国家机器,与他人,包括后任川普的拜登不同,奥巴马是个理想主义者,可正是这理想主义者,这人道主义者,这反战者,把美国
 
The Dangers of Making War Less Dangerous - The New York Times

The Violent Logic of Humanitarianism | Boston Review
Biden seems to recognize that humanitarianism, far more than politics, justified, legitimized, and, indeed, required violence
The international media tended to every report of violence across the country after largely ignoring the torture, rape, massacres, and other war crimes committed by Western armies and their allies as well as by the Taliban, Al-Qaeda, and ISIS over the past twenty years
 
Even as Biden promises to forsake humanitarian interventions for political interests, he is still drawn back to the scene of cruelty that defines the former
 
Unaccountable, unrepresentative, and anti-political, humanitarian interventions are evaluated by internal and economic criteria that include best practice as determined by competitors, value for money as defined by the market, and efficient delivery as measured by budgets and timelines decided without the participation of beneficiaries

Did making war more humane make war worse and longer?
 
That's what Moyn said. Haven't read the book, but had read 3 excerts. Pretty convinced he has a strong argument. But his inadvertant use of Mayer sparked some retort. Mayer strongly objected to both "anti war and anti atrocities are counterproductive" and
 
Then Dexter responded specific to Moyn. He said Moyn was wrong.
 
No he didn't say Moyn was wrong.
 
He said Moyn was wrong b/c he attribited it to the wrong reason. By  Basically, by quoting Atkin, Dexter laid out the true reason is the industrial military complex has grown so big it's got a life of its own. Hardly anything new. But apparently Atkin's knwoldge of details and its inner working is so vivid that his story
 
Did Moyn say the human rights moement is wrong, as in
Kenneth Roth on Twitter: "In @NYBooks, I challenge the suggestion of @SamuelMoyn that the human rights movement is wrong to try to curtail wartime atrocities because that makes it easier to continue wars. Unfettered atrocities -- "total war" -- is a dangerous prescription. https://t.co/RylLVMpPqG https://t.co/xZgmQFoU2A" / Twitter
 
? "Human rights movement" is not wrong per se, but has a detrimental and pervers effect of making war forever. I think that's Moyn's point. "What it reveals is that, for some, the only imaginable alternative to more humane war is more brutal war--not less war." Ah, he is attacking
 
Maybe he expressed the resignation "you may as well not do it".
 
But is Moyn wrong? Dexter said "it was only after the revelations of Abu Ghraib that a majority of Americans came to think the war was a mistake", very true. But the interesting question is, if so, why did the war not end for another 16 years? Here is why Moyn is right. We all agree the industrial military complex doesn't want the war to end. It takes the politicians to end it. But politicians are always bought, "persuaded" with "reason of national security" for "change their mind" even if they campaign public

Moyn suggests that opposing war crimes blinds us to the crime of war. If this is an empirical claim, it’s contradicted by the facts.

As an exclamation point, Biden authorized two strikes targeting ISIS in Afghanistan, one of which reportedly killed Afghani civilians and children.
The administration is continuing the strategy that emerged under Obama, as, in the words of Hal Brands and Michael O’Hanlon, armchair strategists based at Johns Hopkins and Brookings, the United States “failed its way to counterterrorism success.” In what they dub the ”medium footprint strategy,”
The president even reviewed assassination targets each week. Obama ended dropping 10 times the drone bombs that Bush did. “Turns out I’m really good at killing people,” he quipped, “Didn’t know that was gonna be a strong suit of mine.”

Joe Biden is displeased. After our recent editorial criticized the Vice President for privately telling Chinese leader Xi Jinping to ignore U.S. rhetoric on human rights, White House spokesman Stephen Spector wrote to object: “As he has said publicly many times, the Vice President sees human rights in China as fundamental to advancing U.S.-China relations.”
It turns out Mr. Biden has a long record of playing down human rights in private diplomatic meetings while mouthing support in public. His message to China’s Mr. Xi—that U.S. human-rights talk is meant to satisfy a “political imperative” from voters at home—is almost identical to what he told Soviet leaders as a Senator visiting Moscow in 1979.

The Afghanistan withdrawal is making Europe nervous about US NATO leadership - Vox
Afghanistan also belonged to US allies.
 It’s a failure of the Western world and it’s a game changer for international relations,” the European Union’s chief diplomat Josep Borrell
 The United States looked blundering and inept, and it dragged its allies down with it
That has led to recriminations in London and Berlin and Brussels, directed at leaders there, and at the United States
“Was our intelligence really so poor?” former British Prime Minister Theresa May asked in Parliament earlier this month. “Was our understanding of the Afghan government so weak? Was our knowledge on the ground so inadequate? Or did we just think we had to follow the United States and on a wing and a prayer it would be all right on the night?”
Are the United Kingdom and Europe too dependent on the US for their security?
 Joe Biden’s reassurances that “America is back” is not enough
the US communicated, but didn’t consult
欧洲,通过北约,完全是美国的从属,没有独立的能力,欧洲那种为自由民主奋斗的雄心,只是在美国逃跑,自己狼狈不堪后才发现一直是狐假虎威,这一切,把欧洲三大国德英法不久前非要高唱自己是全球势力(Global Briton, Global Germany, Global France, Global EU),是亚太大国,每个国家都来个亚太战略,还派几艘军舰跑到南海威风一把,显得极其可笑
美国根本没有跟盟友商量,只是通知一下,晒在一边,欧洲怎么想呢?是觉得被亏待了?你想过站在美国一边摇旗呐喊时那威风是怎么一回事过吗?结果欧洲,主要是德英,几乎来不及撤退,帮自己的那些阿富汗战友撤退,束手无措,结果国内只能张口大骂,原来盟友不是盟友,欧洲要求延长最后期限,美国简单“不”
A sense of impotence, Martin said, has laid bare the extent of allies’ dependence on the United States
The dependency on the United States fuels insecurity about what happens if the country’s domestic interests diverge more profoundly from Europe’s
Biden has said the right things, and has promised allies he will work to rebuild the relationship. But the Afghanistan exit adds to “this realization that maybe some of the things that were attributed to Trump were actually part of something deeper that’s going on in the US on both sides of the political spectrum,”
难民
德国:part of selling that mission to the public was selling its humanitarian mission,现在被打脸,怎么跟国人交代?
US allies are wondering where they fit in the US’s priorities
withdrawal added to a growing skepticism of the United States, and its larger commitment to collaboration with allies
过去十来年中东首先意识到,尤其是那些专制的产油国,不仅石油依赖中国,而不是美国,美国也要走了,大家都在下面留一手
现在欧洲也感觉到了,欧洲是重要,美国不会让欧洲成为自己的敌人,但除此之外欧洲就没什么本事,结果美国需要的时候哄一哄,不需要的时候不搭理
“平等的盟友关系”实际上是从属关系,跟中国为难时大家摇旗呐喊时要的,之外就呆到一边,别惹事

“When Biden says ‘America is back,’ many people will say, ‘Yes, America is back home,’” said François Heisbourg, a French defense analyst.

美国这种“战略撤退”并不是今天才有的,很多人公开表示担忧,但骨子里却祈祷美国维持自由霸主、世界领袖的地位,在危机当头不会放弃自由世界,所以尽管美国越来越令人失望,但大家的希望还在那儿,这也是当拜登当局重新高举自由民主人权大旗与中国叫阵的时候,大家踊跃而上的原因。阿富汗政府崩溃的戏剧性再一次提醒大家霸主不仅能力有限,而且她的动机和目的与其他追求“自由民主人权”的人并不一致,这种希望与其说是美国的行为与愿望之间的差距,不如说是自己的一种混淆理想和现实的幻觉。
The country expressing the most concern has been China, which shares a short, remote border with Afghanistan, which under the Taliban served as a haven for Uyghur extremists from Xinjiang, the far western Chinese province
中国与塔利班的接触是不能当成当成双方将会有一个稳定关系的体现,毕竟双方对现代的观念相差太远,塔利班访华,表示塔利班意识到中国的实力和影响,意识到自己不能同时树立美国和中国两个敌人,但塔利班对政权稳定和经济发展的要求很低,把社会制度和生活方式放在首位,所以它对中国的依赖是次要的,如果中国处理得不好,双方随时可以反目成仇。

公众号:大海里的针
 
China’s push for “common prosperity” is not just about taxing the rich but also directing resources into rural areas and the lower-income group, according to one of the country’s most prominent experts studying income inequality.
中国的贫富不均在特征上跟美国很相像,垄断性的行业(金融、高技术),高技术职位(对教育依赖性极强),技术人才往往是收入和资产都大大高于社会平均。政府起到了推动的作用,第一税收制度不健康,第二把资源(配套基建、土地、资本和行政支持,如规章制度上的优惠)投在支持这些新兴产业上,第三主要把投资放在城市。
李实特变指出中国的税收制度非常不妥,直接税收(收入)只占三分之一,间接税收反而是三分之二,前者减轻分化,后者加剧分化,全世界这的比例是反过来的。
 
李实解释的这些简单事实,说明中国改革开放依赖一直是一种非常亲资本,贱劳工的制度,只是因为发展的太快,大家都得益,才让人忽视了社会上层拿走了绝大部分果实这么一个事实,就是说,这一段时期中国有钱人是在世界都是最惬意的。同样的制度也反映在企业管理,政府对企业的优惠,这是近期习近平两打,全面监管企业,反垄断,封杀一些行业,和共同富裕一下子涌出来,吓得大家发抖。这原因是企业和有钱人一直享受特殊待遇,资本与政府基本是一家人,如果政府要改,也得有个过程,可习近平一下子半年却盘出台,大家精神上没做好准备。
 
李实特别提到城乡差别,建议政府增加农村教育的投资,我也说过好几次这多重要
 
共同富裕肯定不是富裕
 
最近震荡中外的是习近平讲话里强调的“共同富裕”。习近平每天都讲话,习近平讲话是要提醒各级领导干部他的旨意是什么,让大家反省是不是跟上队伍了,习近平讲话也是要提醒所有各级干部老百姓「通过严明政治纪律和政治规矩,推动各级党组织和党员干部始终自觉地在政治立场、政治方向、政治原则、政治道路上同以习近平同志为核心的党中央保持高度一致,确保党中央一锤定音、定于一尊的权威」。本来很习近平说了那么多,难说到底哪句话,哪个方针是最重要的,这次之所以受重视,是因为过去快一年以来中国政府开始加紧对大型民企和平台的整治,从蚂蚁上市被拒,阿里被罚,到网络数据管制,滴滴到美国上市后受打,到破除阿里腾讯美团的垄断,铩羽各大平台,绞杀整个补习产业,限制游戏时间,重申996违法【1,2】,消灭娘炮,根绝饭圈,大家发现把习近平当成只是喜好事无巨细,啥都插一手,却不必当真的话,是要摔跟头的,政府以前只说不做,现在可能变了,所以习近平的讲话,用的每一个字、词,都被严加分析,当最近一次讲话数次提到“共同富裕”后,外媒都坐不住了,《彭博》一分析【2】,发现大事不好,以前“共同富裕”只是偶尔提提,今年“共同富裕”用量是爆炸式增加:
 
习近平讲话里“共同富裕”每年出现的次数
 
再也不能视而不见了。那次中央财经委员会会议,中国的大头都出席了,是大家站队,还是习近平的新政得到了中央普遍的支持,都无关紧要,每句话,每个字都得当真。不过你要是读读中央财经委员会会议的公布,并没有什么惊人之处,就是通过改善分配机制(如税改)来使得社会分配更加公平:
 
要坚持以人民为中心的发展思想,在高质量发展中促进共同富裕,正确处理效率和公平的关系,构建初次分配、再分配、三次分配协调配套的基础性制度安排,加大税收、社保、转移支付等调节力度并提高精准性,扩大中等收入群体比重,增加低收入群体收入,合理调节高收入,取缔非法收入,形成中间大、两头小的橄榄型分配结构,促进社会公平正义,促进人的全面发展,使全体人民朝着共同富裕目标扎实迈进
 
“推动更多低收入人群迈入中等收入行列”,“完善养老和医疗保障体系、兜底救助体系、住房供应和保障体系”,“依法保护合法收入,坚决取缔非法收入”都是非常对老百姓有利的政策,“形成中间大、两头小的橄榄型分配结构”也绝对是西方正统经济学的观念,中国如果不是,那就是有问题,有问题要改,不是什么怪事,那什么引起了震荡?是“三次分配”,“合理调节过高收入,鼓励高收入人群和企业更多回报社会”,因为这马上让人联想到“共产”,习近平的共同富裕肯定是杀富济贫,在有钱人听了发抖后党媒出头说“不是杀富济贫”有点乱此地无银三百两了,说不是却要求主动三次分配,
 
共同富裕的背景,目的和意义,兔主席有详细的解释【4,5,6,7,8】,
 
共同富裕“不是杀富济贫”,“不是平均主义”
 
习近平讲的共同富裕有没有根据,理由和法律基础呢?都有,

China’s richest 20% earn more than 10 times the poorest 20%, a gap that hasn’t budged since 2015. The country counts 400 million people -- about one-third of its population -- in its middle class, defined as those with annual household income between 100,000 yuan ($15,392) and 500,000 yuan. More than 600 million people in China still live on a monthly income of 1,000 yuan
一是坚持以人民为中心的发展思想,我明确提出了坚持以人民为中心的发展思想。2020年10月29日,在党的十九届五中全会上,我进一步强调要努力促进全体人民共同富裕取得更为明显的实质性进展
二是不再简单以国内生产总值增长率论英雄
 
三是我国经济处于“三期叠加”时期
四是经济发展进入新常态
五是使市场在资源配置中起决定性作用、更好发挥政府作用
六是绿水青山就是金山银山
我们决不能允许贫富差距越来越大、穷者愈穷富者愈富,决不能在富的人和穷的人之间出现一道不可逾越的鸿沟
实现共同富裕,要统筹考虑需要和可能,按照经济社会发展规律循序渐进。同时,这项工作也不能等,要自觉主动解决地区差距、城乡差距、收入差距等问题,推动社会全面进步和人的全面发展,促进社会公平正义,让发展成果更多更公平惠及全体人民,不断增强人民群众获得感、幸福感、安全感,让人民群众真真切切感受到共同富裕不仅仅是一个口号,而是看得见、摸得着、真实可感的事实
美国人觉得习近平这么做一箭双雕,一是赢得国内民心,继续担任 党和国家领导人,二是在中美冷战中把中国提升到一个更吸引人的位置,这第二点是有历史依据的,也是显而易见有影响力的
Xi wants to reverse economic inequality would be if the government pushed through measures such as introducing property and inheritance taxes aimed at the rich.

“另一种人则选择把党所有的历史与政策都用纯政治的角度去理解。这种看法认为,要掌握党的“真谛”,就要透过其表面的措辞,看到背后的政治权力的博弈与斗争——因为归根到底一切都是权力与利益的分配”,西方
兔主席引用习近平的话,多次说“我们又犯错误”,要承认犯了错误,首先要接受实事求是,唯物主义,外界是不以人的意志为转移的,一个绝对权威者,是可以拒绝承认现实的

为什么中国要针对私企,而不是国企?因为“两个毫不动摇”,毫不动摇巩固和发展公有制经济,毫不动摇鼓励、支持、引导非公有制经济发展,中国的治国观念是普天之下莫非王土,王土的意思并不是说这是个人的,而是说是国家的,中国现代的机制是政、党合一,国家的党的,都是一回事,党的意思是“国家的就是人民的”,所以并没有私念,只是当代为管理而已,最终,这些财富是要“服务于人民”的。既然国企是国家的一部分,能动手的,只有私企了。
 
刘鹤强调:“支持民营经济发展的方针政策没有变,现在没有改变,将来也不会改变!这无疑给市场吃下了一颗‘定心丸’”,“党的十五大把‘公有制为主体、多种所有制经济共同发展’确立为我国的基本经济制度,明确提出“非公有制经济是我国社会主义市场经济的重要组成部分”
zhege
民营经济为我国贡献了50%以上的税收、60%以上的GDP、70%以上的技术创新、80%以上的城镇就业和90%以上的市场主体数量。市场给出的庞大数据本身就是对民营经济和民营企业的肯定,承载着“稳就业”的重要作用
习近平总书记曾强调,“我国民营经济只能壮大、不能弱化,不仅不能‘离场’,而且要走向更加广阔的舞台。”
zhege
必须坚持社会主义市场经济改革方向,坚持推进高水平对外开放,坚持社会主义初级阶段基本经济制度,坚持“两个毫不动摇”,坚决保护产权和知识产权。支持民营经济发展的方针政策没有变,现在没有改变,将来也不会改变!
 
浙大李实
一是为政府筹集资金用于公共支出,二是调节收入分配,缩小收入差距。相比而言,中国税收的第二个功能没有发挥应有的作用。一方面这与税收结构有关系
若要让税收在调节收入分配方面发挥更大的作用,就需提高直接税比重,降低间接税比重。直接税包括个人所得税,财产税或房产税,遗产税,赠与税等等
在调整税收结构时要遵循的原则是,不能增加整体税负的水平。当前应该考虑开征房地产税、遗产税、财产税等直接税,但要考虑减少间接税
要解决社会阶层流动性放缓的问题,还是要依靠公共服务水平的均等化,尤其是教育资源的均等化「均等化,和上面“不增加整体税负水平”一起,是把资源转向社会底层,但能不能把政府从国企的税收转移到福利上呢?」
在中国的收入分配制度中,初次分配和二次分配处于更重要的地位,应该说比第三次分配要重要得多。所以,还是要花更大力气去解决初次分配当中存在的问题「共同富裕和第三次分配挂钩,是个障眼法」
当前社会阶层流动性、收入流动性、代际流动性确实都出现了不同程度的放缓,要解决这个问题,还是要依靠公共服务水平的均等化,尤其是教育资源的均等化
建设成福利国家不应该是我们的共同富裕所追求的目标,我们没有必要这样做。而且,中国的经济发展程度、社会富裕程度还没有达到可以建设福利国家的程度,更多要考虑的是要同步推进发展和共享。因此,按照当年北欧的福利国家模式建设中国福利制度是不合适的。但政府在进一步提高公共服务、社会保障、社会福利等方面的水平时可以借鉴北欧部分政策

In my view, the biggest source of uncertainty today is the Cyberspace Administration (CAC), which has asserted power to regulate IPOs, algorithms, and financial media. Unlike most other regulators, it is a party organization, its chief a vice-director at the Propaganda Department

共同富裕也不能只是依靠不断加重个人税赋负担、出台过多的社会政策、过多过高承诺提高社会保障水平来实现
清华大学习近平新时代中国特色社会主义思想研究院院长艾四林
中国式现代化是全体人民共同富裕的现代化,共同富裕路上,一个不能掉队,体现了富裕的全面性。按照党的共同富裕“路线图”,到2035年,全体人民共同富裕取得更为明显的实质性进展;到本世纪中叶,全体人民共同富裕基本实现。可见,中国式现代化解决了西方现代化伴生的两极分化问题。而且,在中国式现代化进程中,坚持以人民为中心,始终把人的全面发展放在突出位置,就是要实现人的全面发展的现代化
 
is signaling plans to more assertively promote social equality, as he tries to solidify popular support for continued Communist Party rule
The government needs to “encourage high-income people and enterprises to give back to society more” and to “create opportunities for more people to become rich,” state-run Xinhua News Agency cited an official report of the meeting as saying
He wants this to demonstrate that socialism is better than Western capitalism in caring for all the population
the country’s Gini-coefficient, a measure of inequality, widened to 70.4 in 2020 from 59.9 in 2000, making China one of the world’s most unequal major economies, according to data from Credit Suisse

李光满胡锡进之争,有人说“一场新的文革正在开始”,这是对贫富不均的反应,对镀金时代
But in his efforts to assert ever-greater personal control over both the party and civil society, he is flirting with propaganda tools and intimidation tactics that many observers see as a throwback to the Mao era,引导大众意志打击个别个人、群体、阶层和行业。非常有针对性
Xi has made it clear that the party must not abandon its revolutionary ideals — that it is duty-bound to deliver “common prosperity” and stand up to the west, especially the US.

数据作为一种资源,工具,武器,既是主权,也是监控
creating a grand experiment for 21st century authoritarian governance.
Beijing aims to have it both ways. It believes that technologies will shore up social control and suppress political dissent without damping the entrepreneurial vigour or the innovation that animate the world’s fastest-growing large economy.
数据国有化
数据主权不是中国特有的,在美国,这是不言而喻的,因为美国控制,垄断世界数字经济的大头,但这种管制可能导致世界进一步脱钩
分割中西的金融市场,有阻断中国企业融资的嫌疑
“Techno-authoritarian state”一切为了保住自己的统治地位,太单纯,简单
数字列宁主义、技术集权
控制控制还是控制
“I think the solution that [Xi Jinping] has settled on is Orwell,” said Scott Kennedy
 
“数据是一种新型生产要素,与土地、劳动力、资本、技术要素并列,共五大生产要素”
 
李光满老师次日的文章毫不避讳地说:“各大央媒集中统一刊发一篇来自公众号自媒体的文章十分罕见,显然是新闻宣传主管部门和网信主管部门的统一安排,由此形成了非常强势的宣传效应。”
