This book examines how COVID-19 has often enhanced social and
economic marginalisation in different places and societies around
the world. It explores the reality that selective deglobalisation
is occurring and over and above the human tragedy which has been
experienced, many societies and economies have had to adapt to the
new reality which they find themselves in. Governments have been
challenged to improve health care and provide economic relief and
stimulus packages to sectors as diverse as tourism and education
which have had to develop new ways of coping. Resilience theory is
drawn on to help explain some of the creative responses which we
observe, while in other places deep-rooted concerns for the future
are a stark reality. By describing how the pandemic has exacerbated
pre-existing geographic, social and economic marginalisation,
particularly for the most vulnerable places, societies and economic
activities globally, this book provides insight into the impacts
and implications across the world and reflects on the different
experiences.
