The Chinese have an interesting concept that quantifies Great Power
status, called Comprehensive National Power (CNP). This index is
produced by processing the economic, military and cultural factors that
make countries powerful: GDP, technological development, number of tanks
and ICBM’s, as well as “softer” factors such as influence on global
media and international institutions. Since I’m not a think-tank, I

摘编。
中国河南省2010年招聘会上，富士康科技有限公司的求职者蜂拥而至。
去年二月份，巴拉克•奥巴马在加利福尼亚参加矽谷名人们的晚宴，每个客人都
得到了一个向总统提问的机会。
但当斯蒂夫•乔布斯准备发问时，奥巴马总统打断了他，先提出了自己的一个问
题：怎样才能在美国生产iPhone？
不久之前，苹果还在吹嘘它的产品都是在美国生产的，今天事情已经完全不是这样了。
苹果公司去年卖出的7000万部iPhone、3000万部iPad和5900万部其他产品，几乎全是在
海外生产的。
奥巴马问，为什么不能把这些工作搬到家里来做？
乔布斯先生的回答含糊其辞，据参加宴会的人员回忆，他说：“这些工作回不来了。”
总统的发问触及了苹果公司的核心问题所在，这已经不仅仅是海外廉价劳动力的问题了
。苹果高层认为，海外工厂的规模、工人的灵活性、勤奋程度和操作技巧都已经超过了
美国工人。“美国制造”已经不是大部分苹果产品的明智选择... 阅读全帖 |

【环球网报道记者李亮】瑞士制表业以其顶级技艺在全球称雄近百年，但近些年却受到
了来自中国的“威胁”。瑞士资讯网7月5日报道，近日，瑞士钟表联盟首次获取了一批
工艺极其精巧繁复的从中国向瑞士走私的盗版手表，并为其以假乱真的技艺到吃惊。报
道称，这些与真品售价相近的假表为瑞士钟表业带来巨大经济损失，也损坏了瑞士钟表
的市场形象。
报道称，只有靠得非常非常近，甚至是用显微镜，才能发现这些假表存在的破绽，
比如表背有一条螺丝缝，或者表壳上的碳原料被换成塑料材料，或者表盘的玻璃上无偏
光功能等。但除了这些微小细节，就连钟表专家都很难一眼看出它们是假的。一支去年
12月在瑞士海关没收宇舶宝“Big Bang”法拉利腕表，就完全能与正版鱼目混珠。无论
是外观、重量、甚至味道——真表带有香草味——都出奇的相似，而最夸张的是表的核

一、引言
中国某些享有盛名、能影响舆论的公知和媒体，一谈起美国的司法制度，就眉飞色舞，
推崇之情溢于言表。
其实这些公知们对美国的司法制度和司法实践所知无几，尚若问起何以见得美国的司法
制度优秀？他们充其量是将美妙动听的理论推来导去。由于他们的误导，中国民众大多
以为美国的每个案子都得到了公正的审判，美国司法制度简直就是公平和正义的化身，
理应成为中国司法改革的楷模。
实践是检验真理的标准。判断美国司法制度的优劣，不能只作理论演择，只重形式和过
程，而不看结果如何。只有当实际结果普遍符合理论预期，才能说理论合用，制度合理
，值得学习效法。本文从实践结果的角度考察美国司法制度，即采用可反映普遍性结果
的统计数据，考察司法制度最重要的几个方面。
