1: Alan Greenspan may be the most famous central banker of the modern era, but Paul Volcker has been the most influential. 2: He played a crucial diplomatic role during the death of the Bretton Woods financial system in the early 1970s, which severed the link between money and gold and ushered in floating exchange rates. 3: As head of the Federal Reserve from 1979, Mr Volcker then tamed the inflation that ensued, bringing monetary stability in the face of political opposition to the very high interest rates required. 4: In doing so, he set the template for modern economic management, built around an independent central bank with an implicit, or explicit, inflation target.

1: 历任当代央行行长中，或许最知名的是艾伦·格林斯潘（ALAN GREENSPAN），但最有影响力的则是保罗．沃尔克。 2:他于二十世纪七十年代初扮演着至关重要的外交角色，期间货币与黄金脱钩、浮动汇率制被引入、布雷顿森林体系走向瓦解。3:1979年，沃尔克出任美联储主席。为了控制随之而来的通货膨胀，沃尔克不顾来自政治方面的反对声音，大幅提高利率，带来了货币稳定。4:借此，他构建了当代经济管理模式，设立了具有明确/隐含通胀目标的一家独立央行。

1:“Where are we going to send them?” asked Mr McCain after the order was signed.2:His Republican colleagues warned that dangerous terrorists could end up in local jails.3:In fact, Mr Obama had in mind a facility in Illinois similar to America’s “supermax” prisons, from which no one has ever escaped.4:But right-wingers stoked public dread and polls soon showed significant disapproval of the closure.5:In the face of such opposition, and with little support from a White House distracted by health-care reform, the Democrats quickly backed down.6:In a series of votes, both parties signalled their displeasure with the president’s policy, blocking funds for Guantánamo’s closure and banning the transfer of detainees to American soil.

1:命令签署后，麦凯恩先生提出了个问题：“我们该把这些战俘送到那儿？”他的共和党同僚预计这些危险的恐怖分子可能会最终投入到当地的监狱。2:事实上，奥巴马对此曾有设想，想在伊利诺伊州设置一所类似美国“超级监房”那样的设施，战犯一旦被投入监牢，就插翅难飞。3:但右翼分子煽动公众的畏惧情绪，投票结果也表明公众对关闭战俘营怀有极大的不满情绪。4:面对反对声浪，当时正被医疗保险改革搞得焦头烂额的白宫当局无暇他顾，对奥巴马提议的支持更是少之又少。5:见势不妙，民主党人随即就打了退堂鼓。6:在此后一系列涉及关塔那摩战俘营的投票中，两党都发出对总统关于关闭战俘营决策不满的呼声，进而要求对关闭战俘营的相关资金加以封锁，禁止将在押人员转到美国本土。

1: Mr Gaddis disagrees. He closes his study by condemning Kennan for having “blinded” himself to the fact that, in Mr Gaddis's opinion, Reagan brought Kennan's “strategy to its successful conclusion”. 2: If Kennan were alive, he would probably still disagree, and not without reason. 3: If the elder man's concern for the costs of bellicose foreign policy, rather than the younger man's enthusiasm for imperial exercise of American power, had dominated the last decade, it would have made for a sounder grand strategy. 4: In ways that this biography seems not entirely to appreciate, Kennan's far-sighted opposition to American over-militarisation makes his personal career history less gripping than his legacy.

1:约翰·加迪斯对此并不认同。在传记结尾他责备了乔治·凯南对事实的“视而不见”，按照约翰·加迪斯的观点，是里根的采纳“成就”了乔治·凯南的战略。2:但是如果乔治·凯南还健在，他可能还会反对，而且还自有道理。3:如果这位老人担心的是好战外交政策所付出的代价，而不是在其后的十年起决定性作用的青年人对美国超级力量运用的热情，那么它将会是一个更加合理的宏伟战略。4:如此来看这部传记对乔治·凯南也不全是赞誉，乔治·凯南颇有远见地反对美国过度军事化使其个人职业生涯的精彩程度比其传记略逊一筹。

There is little clever analysis in the book, but that hardly matters. In years to come it will be a reminder to liberals—now once again in the opposition following the recent election victory of Egypt’s Islamists—of their most glorious hour. It should serve as a heartening reminder of what they are capable of achieving when united and courageous.
