Description: Pandemic Response and the Cost of Lockdowns brings the vast analytical apparatus of the humanities and social sciences to the task of critically analysing the political decisions taken in 2020 21. The 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 policymaking 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. This original and interdisciplinary book will be of great interest to students scholars and researchers throughout the humanities and social sciences including the fields of philosophy sociology anthropology law political science and history as well as relevant policymakers.
