SUMMARY:Book Launch: Pandemic response and the cost of lockdowns: Global debates from humanities and social sciences
DESCRIPTION:Edited by Peter Sutoris (University of York)\, Sinead Murphy (Newcastle University)\, Aleida Mendes Borges (King’s College London)\, and Yossi Nehushtan (Keele University) \nThis is a book launch of Pandemic Response and the Cost of Lockdowns (Routledge 2022). The edited collection brings the vast analytical apparatus of the humanities and social sciences to the task of critically analysing the political decisions taken in 2020–21. \nThe global response to the Covid-19 pandemic left little time for critical debate about the impact of lockdowns. Across the world\, governments claimed to ‘follow the science’\, but they rarely paid attention to the humanities and social sciences. Indeed\, the absence of these perspectives is symptomatic of a longer-term trend in the marginalisation of the humanities and social sciences in policy-making and public debate. This book exposes the tragic consequences of this omission in 2020–21 and demonstrates the potential for a different path in the future – a path in which we pay attention to power\, complexity\, and our biases. The authors establish what these disciplines have to offer in a global emergency and how we can ensure they help us avoid the mistakes of 2020–21 in the future. \nThemes from the book: \nDr Peter Sutoris\, ‘The Role of Social Sciences and Humanities At the Time of Crisis’. \nProf Sinead Murphy\, ‘Philosophy and the Pandemic: Fundamental Questions’. \nProf Yossi Nehushtan\, ‘Lockdowns\, Proportionality\, and the Unjust Discrimination Against Younger Generations’. \nDr Aleida Mendes Borges ‘Lockdowns and the Global South’. \nDiscussants: \nProf Peter Ramsay\, LSE Law School. \nProf Toby Green\, Departments of History and Languages\, Literatures and Cultures\, King’s College London. \nDr Reva Yunus\, Department of Education\, University of York. \nChair: \nProf Kai Möller\, LSE Law School. \n  \n\n\n	Related
