Paraphrasing (14th paragraph)

Text

For decades, trade liberalization has been pursued through a policy of "diversion and appeasement": diverting attention away from opening domestic markets by focusing on exports and foreign policy, and appeasing protectionists with "fair trade" policies that gave politically powerful industries a pass on foreign competition. That strategy worked reasonably well for a long time, and led to a gradual opening of markets around the world.

The main idea of the paragraph

Trade liberalization and economic globalization became possible (in Europe) due to the implementation of a "diversion and appeasement" policy.

在欧洲,由于奉行了“转移和让步”的政策,贸易自由化和经济的全球化成为可能。
