Overview

Ponders how the pandemic didn't just disrupt the world--it deepened existing fractures and forced communities to navigate an unpredictable new normal. While the initial urgency of the COVID-19 pandemic fades, its long-term disruptions continue to reshape societies and individual lives. Covid's Chronicities captures the global experience of a crisis that has evolved into a persistent state of uncertainty. Based on research from Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Africa, this volume examines how governments and communities have navigated everything from shifting policies to the social and economic aftershocks of the pandemic. This volume reveals how COVID-19 has exacerbated existing inequalities and exposed deep structural neglect while also highlighting the resilience of communities, such as Indigenous knowledge systems and grassroots mutual aid networks. Tracing the pandemic's transition from emergency to enduring crisis, the authors offer a sobering yet hopeful analysis of how people continue to remake their worlds in the face of ongoing instability.
