About this book
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19 pandemic and governments around the world reacted by closing their national borders, implementing restrictions on travel within their borders, shutting down all but essential services and requiring large sections of their populations to remain at home. Although the pandemic impacted on every country, this volume focuses on the experiences of the Global South, including case studies of Indonesia, Mexico, Mongolia, Nigeria, Philippines, and Timor-Leste, in addition to comparative and global analyses of the policy responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and their economic, political, social, health, and well-being impacts. Jenny Chesters is Associate Professor at the Faculty of Education, University of Melbourne, Australia. Christian Suter is Professor Emeritus of Sociology at the University of Neuchatel, and President of the World Society Foundation, Zurich, Switzerland. Sandra Fachelli is Associate Professor at the Department of Sociology, Pablo de Olavide University of Seville, Spain.
