当前，国际政治经济形势错综复杂，恐怖主义、难民问题、气候变化等全球性挑战层出不穷，英国退出欧盟，欧美发达经济体出现质疑甚至反对全球化的声音，世界范围内孤立主义、贸易保护主义明显上升，全球化走向和人类未来前景成为国际社会普遍关心的问题。

At present, the international political and economic situation is intricate and complicated. Global challenges like terrorism, refugee and climate change emerged one after another. Britain has voted to leave the European Union. There have been voices questioning or even opposing economic globalization in the developed economies in Europe and America. Isolationism and trade protectionism are obviously increasing all over the world. The trend of globalization and mankind's future have become the universal concern of the international community.

在此背景下，1月17日，世界经济论坛2017年年会在瑞士达沃斯召开，主题是"领导力：应势而为、勇于担当"。中国国家主席习近平应邀出席年会开幕式并发表了题为《共担时代责任，共促全球发展》的主旨演讲，这是中国最高领导人首次出席年会。习主席还出席了18日在日内瓦举行的"共商共筑人类命运共同体"高级别会议并发表《共同构建人类命运共同体》重要演讲。习主席围绕经济全球化、全球治理和人类未来阐述了中国理念和主张。

Against this background, the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting 2017 was held in Davos of Switzerland on January 17 under the theme "Responsive and Responsible Leadership". Chinese President Xi Jinping attended the meeting upon invitation and made a keynote speech "Jointly Shoulder Responsibilities of Our Times, Promote Global Growth". This is the first time that China's top leader attended the annual meeting. President Xi also attended the high-level meeting of "Jointly Building a Community of Shared Future for Mankind Through Consultation" held in Geneva on January 18 and gave an important speech: "Work Together to Build a Community of Shared Future for Mankind". In his speeches, Presidents expounded China's vision and proposals on the economic globalization, international governance and mankind's future.

如何看待经济全球化？习主席指出，经济全球化是社会生产力发展的客观要求和科技进步的必然结果，为世界经济增长提供了强劲动力，促进了商品和资本流动、科技和文明进步、各国人民交往。同时也要承认，经济全球化是一把"双刃剑"，在推动世界经济发展的同时，也带来一些消极后果和新挑战，如贫困、失业、收入差距拉大，增长和分配、资本和劳动、效率和公平的矛盾更加突出。但经济全球化是历史大势，大方向是正确的，应该全面看待，要重视经济全球化进程的不足，但不能因噎废食，不能把目前困扰世界的诸如金融危机、难民潮等问题简单地归咎于全球化，更不能搞保护主义。

How to view economic globalization? President Xi pointed out that economic globalization resulted from growing social productivity and is a natural outcome of scientific and technological progress. It has powered global growth and facilitated movement of goods and capital, advances in science, technology and civilization, and interactions among peoples. Meanwhile, we should recognize that economic globalization is a double-edged sword. While propelling the global economic growth, it also brought some negative outcomes and new challenges like poverty, unemployment and widening income gap and strained the relations between growth and distribution, between capital and labor, and between efficiency and equity. However, economic globalization is the general trend of history and its general direction is right. It should be viewed comprehensively. We should pay attention to its deficiency but not give up eating for fear of choking or simply attribute the problems like financial crisis and refugee to globalization, let alone protectionism.
