Description
This book explores the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic is poised to be a permanent temporality in the modern world in which contemporary time will be thought of in terms of before and after the pandemic. It looks at how the pandemic has brought to the fore the question of appropriate ethics, politics, and spirituality and highlights the present condition of humanity and the need to rethink alternative planetary futures. It argues that the pandemic has existential and epistemic implications for human life on planet earth and post-COVID-19 futures require a fundamental transformation of the present economic, political, and social conditions.
Drawing on empirical case studies on the COVID-19 pandemic from Africa and beyond, contributions in this book challenge the reader to rethink alternative planetary futures. It will be a useful resource for students, scholars, and researchers of African studies, citizenship studies, global development, global politics, human geography, migration studies, development studies, international studies, international relations, and political science
