埃及危机蕴藏希望

    • 第三，民众赋权可能强化：从提高公民参与度到政治空想，绝不要低估最终感受到当家做主、可以改变国家命运的民众所爆发出来的潜力。

    • 第四，埃及经济潜力巨大：如果政局稳定，短期能获得金融援助，很多领域的生产力将得到释放。

    • 最后，埃及的朋友和盟友们都希望看到这个国家的转型取得成功，并愿意为此做出贡献：很多人都热切地期待埃及国内能持续地推动实现革命目标，取得真正的经济和社会进步，他们愿意为此尽一份力。

    埃及当前的政治和经济前景正面临挑战，原因可以理解；最新的国内政治争端加深了与革命核心相关的焦虑。

    但要说对这个国家不报任何希望，现在还为时尚早。实际上，如果处理得当，这次最新争端（以及它在国内引发的反应）或许能帮助埃及及时而富有建设性地修正前进的道路，带来持久的效应。

    • Third, the potential upside of popular empowerment: From greater civic engagement to visionary aspirations, never underestimate the upside associated with a population that finally feels it owns the country and can influence its destiny.

    • Fourth, the economy's considerable potential: With some sustained political stability and short-term financial assistance, many productive sectors can be unleashed in a meaningful manner.

    • Finally, Egypt's friends and allies are interested in its success and they're ready to contribute: many are keen to align themselves behind a sustained domestic effort to attain the revolution's objectives of real and inclusive economic and social progress.

    Egypt's immediate political and economic future is challenging, and for understandable reasons; and the latest internal political controversy adds to the anxiety associated with a tricky revolutionary pivot.

    Yet it is too early to give up on the country. Indeed, if properly handled, even this latest controversy – and the internal responses it has already triggered – could end up helping Egypt course correct in a constructive, timely and durable fashion.
