Macron's online speech at the "Davos Agenda" World Economic Forum showed many highlights worthy of attention.

His speech touched on many issues of modern capitalism, and also expressed views on economic, climate and other issues after the epidemic, which reflected in-depth thinking on world development trends.

Macron made it clear that modern capitalism is no longer relevant in this day and age, a view that has attracted widespread attention.

This statement is not groundless.

In recent years, the global gap between rich and poor has continued to widen. In some countries, the incomes of people at the bottom are growing slowly, while the wealth of the rich is increasing rapidly.

Macron asked leaders of various countries to pay attention to this situation because it reveals the unhealthy tendencies in capitalist free competition.

In response to these circumstances, he proposed that the way to get rid of the epidemic is to build an economic system that pays more attention to narrowing the gap between rich and poor, which is a key consideration from the perspective of social equity.

In the global economic landscape, many countries pursue the maximization of capital interests under the capitalist economic system. This phenomenon has indirectly caused the increase in the gap between rich and poor.

Macron’s views may be a warning to this economic model, which has prompted the world to start thinking about future economic trends.

The COVID-19 epidemic has had a serious impact on mankind. Macron emphasized that the first lesson is that we must not only focus on economic development while ignoring the human factor.

During the epidemic, various countries took various measures. In areas with severe epidemics, such as many European and American cities, governments have ordered the suspension of production and operations to curb the spread of the virus.

This kind of move to stop all economic activities to save human lives was difficult to imagine in the past.

Everyone began to understand that economics is essentially a moral discipline in which the value of life is far greater than numbers in any trade.

In many small and medium-sized cities in Italy, local governments still strictly implement the blockade policy despite the heavy economic burden on many family-owned businesses. This is because protecting people's lives is considered a top priority.

After the epidemic, reconstruction efforts need to follow this new concept, and the public needs to adjust their way of thinking about economic decision-making.

When formulating economic development plans, human vulnerability must be taken into consideration and one cannot blindly pursue cold economic data and trade volumes. Only by laying this foundation can the economic recovery after the epidemic ensure that it does not deviate from the right path.

Macron emphasized the need to build an economic system that can narrow the gap between rich and poor. There are many practical supports behind this goal.

In some African countries, a small number of resource controllers and entrepreneurs have extremely high wealth, but the majority of the people live on the edge of poverty.

The social contradictions caused by the gap between rich and poor have become increasingly prominent, and class divisions have further widened.

Solving this gap between rich and poor is conducive to social stability and harmony.

From a global perspective, many developing countries often occupy a low-end position in the industrial chain due to technical limitations and capital shortages in international market competition, making it difficult to achieve high economic returns. At the same time, in the context of economic globalization, companies in developed countries are focusing more on high-end industries and earning huge profits.

This shows that narrowing the gap between rich and poor requires adjustments to the global economic structure and the concerted efforts of many factors.

Macron's view of economics as a moral science is very profound.

In the past, when many countries and companies made decisions, they often only focused on economic gains and often ignored people's interests or harmed the environment.

In the face of the epidemic, the value of life transcends commercial considerations, which implies that economic decisions need to be re-examined from a moral perspective.

When companies choose to set up factories in a specific area, they need to weigh their economic interests and also consider strategies to promote local employment and improve residents' living standards.

Among multinational companies, some companies have relocated highly polluting industries to developing countries, purely pursuing profit growth brought by low-cost production, but ignoring the serious consequences of local environmental degradation.

Now this kind of behavior is necessarily undesirable based on the thinking that economics is a moral science.

Macron said that the key to solving the climate problem is for all countries to work together to realize their commitments.

The EU has set a series of tasks aimed at reducing carbon emissions and assigned these tasks to individual countries.

The new U.S. government's return to the Paris Agreement has sent a positive signal to the field of global climate governance.

In fact, climate change has triggered a series of extreme weather, such as wildfires in Australia, which lasted for several months, killing many animals and plants, and reducing forest resources accordingly.

In the area of ​​biodiversity, climate commitments will be difficult to achieve without investors, businesses and countries joining together.

Tropical rainforests around the world, especially in the southern regions, are rich in biological diversity. However, due to poor local economic conditions, illegal and legal logging activities are frequent, posing a threat to biodiversity. The international community and capital forces should work together to solve the protection problem.

Macron's thoughts in these speeches have strong guidance for the post-epidemic era.

After the epidemic, countries need to focus on economic recovery and at the same time focus on the overall well-being of people.

Among Asian countries, countries like Thailand, whose economies rely heavily on tourism, have been severely affected during the epidemic. Entering the post-epidemic period, these countries must consider narrowing the gap between rich and poor in society while rebuilding their tourism industry, while also paying attention to people's moral needs.

Countries need to consider innovation, human vulnerability, and humanitarian factors in their economic planning. Even oil-exporting countries, while paying attention to the oil economy, should also pay attention to how to transition traditional economies to new energy while taking into account human vulnerability. Wounded qualities and humanity.

If countries can learn from these experiences and lessons, the world will move towards a healthier growth path.
