21分鐘的簡單演講，在TED倫敦沙龍會上，《當(dāng)中國統(tǒng)治世界》的作者經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家馬丁·雅克Martin Jacques言簡意賅地講述了他眼中的中國西方世界，尤其是歐洲的衰落。

演講最后幾分鐘的內(nèi)容摘錄如下：

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年來，世界基本上是被人類的一部分人所管轄。這就是被歐洲和北美所代表的一小撮人。新興國家的崛起，像中國和印度，它們占世界人口的百分之三十八，和其他國家如印尼和巴西等等，他們代表了在過去200年間最重要的人類活動。民主化進(jìn)程曾被忽視，沒有發(fā)言權(quán)的文明和文化，人們對此不了解，沒聽說過的文明和文化，它們將用與眾不同的聲音代言它們自身。作為人道主義者，我們必定要歡迎這種轉(zhuǎn)型。我們還得學(xué)習(xí)這些文明。這兒的大船，是在15世紀(jì)早期鄭和下西洋時，航行的船，它穿過中國東海，南海， 然后穿行印度洋到達(dá)東非。這前面的小船，是80年后，克里斯托弗·哥倫布穿行大西洋的船只。或者仔細(xì)看看這幅由ZhuZhou在1368年創(chuàng)作的絹軸國畫，我認(rèn)為他們在打高爾夫。上帝啊，竟然是中國人發(fā)明了高爾夫球。歡迎來到未來。

馬丁·雅克在《當(dāng)中國統(tǒng)治世界》中寫到：

“中國絕對不會走上西方民主化的道路，只會選擇一條不同于西方世界的發(fā)展模式；中國的崛起將改變的不僅僅是世界經(jīng)濟(jì)格局，還將徹底動搖我們的思維和生活方式。”

中國影響世界的一極是龐大的經(jīng)濟(jì)力量，另一極是根植于中華文明的又符合未來世界潮流的文化和價值觀。改革開放近40年的實踐，誕生的本土思維觀念，前導(dǎo)未來世界發(fā)展潮流，中間與互聯(lián)網(wǎng)時代結(jié)合，后承幾千年文明積淀，是中國崛起的絕對核心力量。

陰陽哲學(xué)，混序管理等，必將發(fā)揚(yáng)光大于環(huán)球世界。
