India is a civilization, not just a country, nation, or government. Taking over the leadership of G20 by India, at a time when the world is battling pandemics, war, energy and climate crisis, and resource restriction is not just appropriately suited politico-economically but socio-culturally as well. COVID-19 proved that the unbelievably diverse world was too complex to be packed into a utopian hold-all one size fits all ideas. However, the fact is that COVID-19 may only have uncovered the crisis, which had been in the making for the latter part of the last century and extending into the current. India's leadership of G20 is therefore a window of opportunity for a more sustainable worldview as the ideas are coming from a civilization with a long history of acceptance of the entire world as one family- Vasudaiva Kutumbakam.
印度是一种文明,而不仅仅是一个国家、民族或政府。在世界正与大流行病、战争、能源和气候危机作斗争,且资源受限之际,由印度接任二十国集团(G20)的领导权,不仅在政治经济方面恰如其分,在社会文化方面也是如此。2019冠状病毒病证明,这个极其多样化的世界过于复杂,无法被塞进一个乌托邦式的、一刀切的万能理念之中。然而,事实是,2019冠状病毒病可能只是揭示了这场从上世纪后半叶就已开始并延续至今的危机。因此,印度对G20的领导是一个机会之窗,有助于形成一种更具可持续性的世界观,因为这些理念源自一个有着将整个世界视为一家人——“世界大同”——悠久历史的文明。
