This book explores the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic is
poised to be a permanent fixture in the modern world which in
contemporary times 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 the 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 a post–COVID-19 future requires 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.
