(8). Paradoxically, that success spared governments from enacting bolder reforms of the sort that might make the Great Recession the once-a-century event economists thought such calamities should be.

(15). Though unpopular, the decision to bail out the financial system prevented the implosion of the global economy.

尽管不受欢迎，救助金融体系的决定防止了全球经济的内爆。

(16). But the success of those policies, and the relatively bearable recession that resulted, allowed governments to avoid more dramatic interventions of the sort which, after the 1930s, gave the world half a century of (relative) economic calm.

但是，这些政策的成功以及由此所带来的相对可以承受的衰退却给了各国政府避免那种曾在上世纪30年代之后让世界获得了半个世纪的(相对)经济平静的更加剧烈的干预。
