MONTREAL Many of us are terrified by the prospect of having a debilitating stroke or a fatal heart attack. Few of us, however, respond as emotionally to the threat of chronic disease, a vague and elastic term that is mainly useful for organizing health services.

The conclusion that Greece needed official loans to repay its private creditors ensured that Greek debt remained large, compelling eurozone leaders to demand economically debilitating fiscal austerity.

The main question is whether China can escape the pull of this old psychological syndrome which kept it preoccupied throughout the twentieth century with debilitating sentiments of weakness, insecurity, and humiliation and allow itself to be guided by a new outlook on the world, and even on old enemies.

By revising the country s National Defense Program Guideline (conventionally called an Outline) last December, Koizumi s government began the process of clarifying some of these debilitating ambiguities.

What threatens America s global leadership is, rather, some of the most divided and disruptive domestic politics in its history.
