This book draws attention to the non-biological-political,
economic, societal and cultural-variables shaping both the
emergence and persistence of the COVID-19 pandemic and the global
response to it, with a particular focus on political
decisionmakers' role in the domestic and international politics
surrounding the process of the pandemic. The book identifies the
strategic and underlying ethical failures of decision making, using
a process-tracing approach to reconstruct considerations, decisions
and actions by key leaders-interested in thus weaving a global
narrative of the response. The author highlights key speech acts,
and interprets the causal implications embedded in a chronological
and contextualised appraisal of events, statements and public
health measures. The book further discusses the normative ethics of
pandemic response, and presents lessons drawn from the present
experience. It also offers a normative analysis taking into
consideration pre-pandemic guidelines for response, including in
the literature of public health ethics and pandemic preparedness
plans.
