今朝の「朝ズバッ！」でも、取上げていたが、国際経営開発研究所が１０日発表した２００７年版の国・地域別の国際競争力ランキングでは、１位のアメリカは別格として、
上位には、スイス、ルクセンブルグ、オランダ、オーストリアなど、欧州の国土の小さい国が上位に連なっていた。
上位２０位を列挙していたが、そこには、日本は無く、欄外に書いてあった。
昨年の１７位から、大幅落ちの２４位。
ランキンググラフは、ここをクリック。 （但し、ＰＤＦファイルに付き注意）
アメリカ追随で、外交よりも軍事一辺倒で、いわゆる“先進国”の中で唯一継続して軍事費を増やし、社会福祉を削ってきた結果がこれだ。
独立国とは到底思えないアメリカ一辺倒の政府の無能な政策が、国際ランキングも大幅に低下させる羽目になった。
国土の小さい日本も、アメリカの呪縛から離脱し、欧州の小国に学べば、もっと良い国に成長できるだろうに。
日本の見かけの“経済力”は、リストラや非正規雇用による欧州に比べて極めて低い労働コスト（労働分配率）に依拠しており、このため国民の力（購買力や文化・芸術、創造力等など）が低下していることが、このランキング大幅低下の原因ではないかと思う。
その不祥事続発の無能な安倍内閣が、任期中に（人気ランキングはすでに低下しているが）憲法を「戦争の出来る憲法」に変えようとしている。
改憲の露払いとなる「国民投票法」＝改憲手続き法案を、近々参議院でも強行採決しようとしている。
何としても、阻止しなければ！

国際競争力、日本は中国に抜かれ２４位に転落
2007年5月10日（木）01:36 讀賣Ｗｅｂ版
【ロンドン＝中村宏之】スイスに本拠を置く国際経営開発研究所（ＩＭＤ）が１０日発表した２００７年版の国・地域別の国際競争力ランキングで、日本は昨年の１６位から２４位に順位を下げた。
高成長を続ける中国は昨年の１８位から１５位に上昇し、初めて日本を上回った。
首位は０６年と同様に米国で、シンガポール、香港と続いた。

World Competitiveness
The 2007 edition of IMD’s World Competitiveness Yearbook highlight a big shake-up in economic and business power. Emerging nations are quickly catching up in competitiveness. New companies and new brands are appearing all over the world. They now contest the long-standing competitive supremacy of industrialized nations. “This could lead to an increase in protectionist measures in Europe and the US”, says Professor Stéphane Garelli, Director of IMD’s World Competitiveness Center.
Of the 55 countries ranked by IMD, the US still ranks No. 1 in 2007, closely followed by Singapore and Hong Kong. However, 40 economies are now increasing or maintaining their competitiveness compared to the US - in other words, “closing the gap”. Only 15 are losing ground. For the first time, the ranking indicates not only the competitive position of nations in 2007 but also their ability to catch up with the leader (the US). These trends are based on past competitive performance, drawn from the world’s most comprehensive database on world competitiveness built up over two decades by IMD.

China, Russia, India, the Slovak Republic, Estonia, Sweden, Austria, Australia, Denmark, Switzerland and Hong Kong have displayed a strong improvement in their competitiveness performance in recent years. Says Professor Garelli: "This does not imply that all of these nations are already at the top of the competitiveness league. However, they are catching up quickly. Such strong performances will obviously impact future rankings.
"On the other hand, Indonesia, Italy, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, the Philippines and France have tended to lose ground compared to the top league. Despite some real and specific competitive advantages, these nations will, sooner or later, lose their standing in world competitiveness if they do not improve their overall performance.
"Economic and business power is shifting to new countries: China, Russia and India have together stacked up more than $1,700bn in foreign currency reserves. Local companies from South-East Asia, India, China, Russia and the Gulf countries are buying industrial assets the world over.
"In all likelihood, industrialized nations will find it hard to tolerate such a power shift. They will not accept the loss of some of their “business jewels” to newcomers without a fight. We shall thus face a year of rising protectionist measures. An increase in the number of complaints filed at the WTO for unfair practices can be expected.
"But the new faces of protectionism will be subtler than in the past: corporate governance, environmental protection, intellectual property or social rights are the new key words. In 2007 and beyond, economic relations will be more tense than ever as emerging markets turn into emerging powers and challenge the established order for competitiveness," warns Professor Garelli.
Professor Garelli is a world expert on competitiveness. He is the director of, and pioneered the World Competitiveness Center, which produces and publishes the annual IMD World Competitiveness Yearbook. He teaches in the Breakthrough Program for Senior Executives (BPSE) and the Orchestrating Winning Performance (OWP) program.
