2021论文题目
问题1:
1. The current national debt of the United States stands at roughly $29 trillion, a value greater than the GDP. Some argue that this mountain of debt constitutes an economic threat. Others reassure the public that debt is no cause for concern. Is the national debt a matter for concern, and why or why not?
美国目前的国债约为29万亿美元,比国内生产总值还要高。一些人认为,堆积如山的债务构成了经济威胁。其他人则向公众保证,债务问题没有什么值得担心的。国家债务问题值得关注吗?为什么?
问题2:
2. As governments around the world struggled to control the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, international trade took a massive blow as it experienced unprecedented production chain disruptions. How did such disruptions affect varying economic agents – from individuals to entire nations? What can be done to temper current shocks and prevent future ones?
在世界各国政府努力控制新冠疫情的影响之际,国际贸易遭受了巨大打击,它经历了前所未有的生产链中断打击。这种破坏是如何影响到从个人到国家不同的经济主体的?我们能做些什么来缓和当前的冲击并防止未来的冲击呢?
问题3:
3. The Sherman Act of 1890 outlaws "every contract, combination, or conspiracy in restraint of trade," and any "monopolization, attempted monopolization, or conspiracy or combination to monopolize." Over a century after it was adopted, the Sherman Act still actively informs United States antitrust policy. However, many lawmakers are now considering redefining these policies. Is antitrust regulation outdated and in need of modernization? What new policies, if any, should legislators propose? How will these changes affect markets?
1890年的《谢尔曼法案》(Sherman Act)宣布“任何限制贸易的合同、组合或阴谋”以及任何“垄断、企图垄断、共谋或联合垄断”均为非法。在《谢尔曼法》被采纳一个多世纪后,它仍然积极地指导着美国的反垄断政策。然而,许多议员现在正在考虑重新定义这些政策。反垄断监管是否已经过时,是否需要现代化?如果有新的政策,立法者应该提出什么新政策?这些变化将如何影响市场?
问题4:
4. The rise of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), in addition to existing forms of decentralized cryptocurrencies, could eventually shape the way global finance is conducted through technology. This spells significant economic and political repercussions, especially as non-US countries such as China implement CBDCs to varying extents. In light of these developments, how should the Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, or other institutions and governments proceed with the development of CBDCs in their respective economies?
央行数字货币(CBDCs)的崛起,以及现有形式的去中心化加密货币,最终可能会塑造出一种基于技术的全球金融方式。这将带来重大的经济和政治影响,尤其是在中国等非美国国家不同程度地实施CBDC的情况下。鉴于这些发展,美联储、欧洲中央银行或其他机构和政府应如何在各自的经济中发展CBDC?
2022年写作主题: There's no Planet B
可持续发展的意义不言而喻,5-10年前,提到可持续发展,人们首先想到的是应对气候变化、发展清洁能源。21世纪已经走过五分之一,守护人类可生存的唯一星球,不再局限于治理环境,还包括发展绿色低碳经济、推动产业创新、完善公共健康体系、实现性别平等、维持海洋清洁与太空安全。投稿人根据自身兴趣在《哈佛国际评论》的13个常设领域中选择其一,自拟题目,文章内容需体现对There's no Planet B的思考,并与国际事务相关。
