Description

The COVID-19 pandemic has presented an important case study, on a global scale, of how democracy works - and fails to work - today.

From leadership to citizenship, from due process to checks and balances, from globalization to misinformation, from solidarity within and across borders to the role of expertise, key democratic concepts both old and new are now being put to the test.

The future of democracy around the world is at issue as today's governments manage their responses to the pandemic.

Bringing together some of today's most creative thinkers, these essays offer a variety of inquiries into democracy during the global pandemic with a view to imagining post-crisis political conditions.

Representing different regions and disciplines, including law, politics, philosophy, religion, and sociology, eighteen voices offer different outlooks - optimistic and pessimistic - on the future.
