和訳を教えてください
国際貿易に関する和訳の宿題をやっていますが、意味が分からず困っている所があります。長文の中の一部なので わかり辛いかもしれませんが、どうぞ宜しくお願いします。 The most obvious reasons are China's growing economic weight and its willingness to throw it around. この文の後半 its willingness ～ が分かりません。its は中国で、次のitは growing economic weight だとは思うのですが、 throw it around となるとどう訳していいか分かりません。 throw around を辞書でひいたところ、振り回す、投げ散らかす、浪費する などがありましたが、結局何が言いたいのかが分かりません。 どなたか宜しくおねがいします。

大きな英和辞典や熟語辞典で weight の項を検索すれば分かるように、 throw one's weight around（またはabout） は熟語的表現で、「自分の力を利用（誇示）する、いばり散らす、顔を利かす」などといった意味があります。 ですから全体の意味は、 最も明白な理由は、中国の経済的重要性の増大と、自分の力を誇示することに躊躇しない中国の態度である といったようなことでしょうか。

「最も明白な理由は、経済成長を続ける中国が、経済力を背に影響力の行使を図っている点にある。」 エコノミスト ２月２８日号の 「アジア諸国が二国間貿易協定の締結を急ぐ理由」 の一部ですね。 ホームページで全訳が載ってますけど、宿題でしたら すべて自分でやってから確認しましょうね。

私には「its willigness to throw it around」が消費意欲とも自己顕示欲とも読み取れました。 前後の文章とのつながりによるので、＃２の方があっているかもしれません。
お礼
早速の回答ありがとうございます。 ご指摘の通り willingness にRavioliさんがおっしゃる様な意味合いを感じます。 アドバイス参考にさせていただきます。 ありがとうございました。

黙示（暗示）の表現です。はっきりと入っていませんが、文脈から推測してください。 もっとも明白な理由は、中国経済が成長している（中国の存在が重要になっている）、そして、（製品？）をあちこちに、ばらまいている。
お礼
早速回答していただき ありがとうございます。 そうですね、単語の訳語にこだわらずに、もっと柔軟に推測しようと努力するべきでした。 「その経済力で世界に影響を与えようとしている」のようにも推測できますかね？もう少し考えてみます。 kanpyouさんのアドバイス参考になりました。 ありがとうございます。

"Following this change, a port should be developed where fishing boats may take refuge," Ishihara said at the Hudson Institute, a Washington think tank. "I further believe that we must seriously begin contemplating the establishment of a permanent post for the Self-Defense Forces in this area" he said. Japan said in 2008 that it had reached kn agreement with China for joint drilling of potentially lucrative gas fields near the disputed islands. But the deal has gone nowhere, with China saying its stance has not changed. Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda's Democratic Party of Japan has mostly sought smooth ties with China, which says its growing military spending is for peaceful purposes. Noda asked Chinese President HC Jintao for progress on the 2008 deal during talks last month on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific summit in Hawaii, although Japanese officials said Hu was noncommittal. But Ishihara said China has become "assertive, one may even say aggressive" in recent years and pointed to its actions in separate maritime disputes with the Philippines, Vietnam and other Southeast Asian nations, "Emboldened by its new economic weight and growing military might, China's proclamations of its 'peaceful rise' appear more and more at odds with the emerging reality," he said. Ishiara, leading a delegation from his party, was in Washing- ton partly to ease concerns over the opposition's stance on the Trans-Pacific Partnership free- trade pact championed by President Barack Obama.

Consider establishing SDF garrison on Senkaku isles: LDP's Ishihara Washington AFP-JIJI Japan should consider deploying Self-Defense Forces units to islands it controls but claimed by China to counter Beijing's growing assertiveness, a liberal Democratic Party leader said while on a visit to the United States. Nobuteru Ishihara, sometimes seen as a future prime minister if the LDP returns to power, said Monday that Tokyo should also look more broadly at stepping up defense spending in the face of a rising China. Japan officially regards the Senkaku Islands as under the jurisdiction of Okinawa. Beijing claims the islets, which are known in China as Diaoyu. Last year a run-in involving a Chinese trawler and Japan Coast Guard boats trying to shoo the vessel away from the area led to a further souring of relations. Ishihara, secretary general of the conservative party, said Japan should move "quickly" to put the islands under public Ishihara, of the conservative party, said Japan should move "quickly" to put the islands under public control. Tokyo considers most of the area to be privately owned by Japanese citizens. "Following this change, a port should be developed where fishing boats may take refuge," Ishihara said at the Hudson Institute, a Washington think tank. "I further believe that we must seriously begin contemplating the establishment of a permanent post for the Self-Defense Forces in this area" he said.

Ishiara, leading a delegation from his party, was in Washing- ton partly to ease concerns over the opposition's stance on the Trans-Pacific Partnership free- trade pact championed by President Barack Obama. Noda announced last month that Japan will enter the TPP talks but has faced strong opposition from farmers worried about foreign competition and threats of strong resistance by LDP lawmakers who consider the farm industry as a key political base. Ishihara said discussions on the TPP are "at the starting line" and the government must do all it can to address public concerns and ensure food security. "We would like to understand what the US. wants to get out of the TPP. If it's an effective tool to establish a free-trade zone for the Pacific that benefits both the US. and Japan, that would be reason to pursue it," he said. "But if we can't identify enough merit for Japan and the US., then maybe we should pursue another way to establish a free-trade zone."

Most of them are illegal immigrants from Mexico, a fact that helps explain not only California's recent strawberry boom, but also the quiet, constant transformation of the state's rural landscape and communities. Meanwhile, the eastest-growing and most profitable part of California's farm economyーthe cultivation of high-value specialty cropsーhas also become the one most dependent on the availability of cheap labor. Nearly every fruit and vegetable found in the diet of health-conscious, often politically-aware consumers is still picked by hand: every head of lettuce, every bunch of grapes, every avocado, peach, and plum. As the demand (1) these foods has risen, (2) has the (3) of workers (4) to harvest them. Of the migrants in California today, anywhere from 30 to 60 percent, depending on the crops, are illegal immigrants. Their willingness to work long hours for low wages has enabled California to sustain its agricultural production, despite the loss since 1964 of more than nine million acres of farmland. Fruit and vegetables growers now rely on a flourishing black market in laborーand without it even more farms would disappear. Illegal immigrants, often criticized as welfare cheats, are in effect supporting the most important sector of California's economy.
