“时至今日,我还清楚地记得第一次在公众面前断言全球化气数将尽、日暮途穷的情景。那是1999年,地点在悉尼。当时,澳洲国家电视台正在直播我的讲话。”约翰·拉尔斯顿·索尔在《全球化崩溃》(第二版)一书的尾声篇“2009:选择的回归”中这样回忆说。 “Today, I remember vividly the first time in the public assertion that the global weather will be exhausted, the scene of the twilight, it was in 1999 in Sydney, when the Australian state television station is broadcast live on my speech. ” John Ralston Thorl recalled this in the end of the book Globalization (Second Edition) “2009: The Return of Choice.”
