Abstract:
This book directly addresses the social and economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. It does so by focusing on both the immediate effects during the pandemic and the lockdowns, as well as the issues related to the long-term social consequences that are likely to result from the economic crisis in the coming years. To date, most philosophical essays and books have focused on the health aspects of the pandemic, and in particular on the fields of medical ethics and public health ethics. Containing a truly international and interdisciplinary group of scholars, a unique and global perspective is offered on the rarely discussed social and economic consequences of the pandemic. This book is of great interest to academic philosophers, but also to researchers from the social sciences. “This collection contributes significantly to our understanding of the ethics of pandemics, drawing our attention to existing injustices and inequities that have been laid bare by the COVID crisis. Perhaps just as important is the way in which it seeks to connect theory to practice. In short, it provides a compelling identification of ethical issues and potential resolutions to injustices highlighted by the pandemic. It would be valuable for anyone working in areas of global justice, social justice, international ethics, immigration, or international political theory.” Joshua J. Kassner (Professor, Division of Legal, Ethical and Historical Studies, University of Baltimore) "For those who wish to gain both a deep and wide understanding of the societal consequences of the Covid-19 global pandemic, especially with a focus on ethics and fairness from an expansive array of perspectives, a deep dive into this book will be time well spent. The book deserves to find its footing with as wide an audience as possible. It is both ambitious and timely.” Michael J. Stevens (Brady Distinguished Presidential Professor, Weber State University).
