Social Fairness in a Post-Pandemic World
Palgrave Macmillan (Verlag)
978-981-19-9656-6 (ISBN)
This book brings a much-needed re-examination of the concepts of social fairness and justice in light of the COVID-19 crisis. Through careful analysis of issues as diverse as the allocation of vaccines through the global system COVAX, women and gender, migrants and refugees, the environment, and social justice, the authors bring novel perspectives on openness, freedom, and well-being. This ambitious collection combines political, economic, historical, philosophical, and cultural analyses to examine whether it is possible to envision a "fair society" after the global COVID-19 pandemic.
