Book La pandemia de COVID 19 y un nuevo orden mundial

Download or read book La pandemia de COVID 19 y un nuevo orden mundial written by Liliana Henao Kaffure and published by Fondo Editorial – Ediciones Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia. This book was released on 2021-07-16 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las consecuencias del coronavirus son de distinto orden. En este libro se consideran algunas de las que afectan el orden mundial, el cual tendrá diversos impactos en la pospandemia. La pandemia de covid-19 no ha sido la primera ni tampoco será la última, en un mundo en el que la humanidad no ha sabido guardar la debida relación con la naturaleza y con el planeta. Se ha reaccionado con interpretaciones variadas sobre el coronavirus, algunas racionales y otras disparatadas que incorporan teorías lineales y hasta conspirativas. Hay visiones que invitan a pensar en el futuro en derivas autoritarias innecesarias frente a las del respeto de las libertades individuales democráticas, en un clima de generalización de sistemas de vigilancia y de tecnologías digitales de control lideradas por China, pero utilizadas también por algunos Gobiernos en Occidente. El comportamiento chino se ofrece como modelo para el mundo, lo cual plantea disyuntivas para países latinoamericanos de alineamientos diferentes frente al nuevo poder y el alineamiento tradicional con Estados Unidos. Este entorno ofrece la posibilidad de pensar en un régimen político mundial fundamentado en experiencias maquiavelianas, pero sin descuidar el trasfondo político de un terrorismo siempre activo y vigente y de los fuertes cambios en el entorno geoeconómico con el acortamiento de las cadenas globales de valor en su espacialidad transcontinental.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage est une œuvre participative rédigée à l’aide d’entretiens avec des professionnels de santé, membres des comités, des médias (débats, articles) et des témoignages. L’humanité a plus que jamais besoin des hommes (militaires, médias, médecins, clairvoyants, ...) qui exaltent les esprits. Le Covid-19 fait vivre au monde une crise sanitaire sans précédent. Toutes les portes sont fermées, les rues abandonnées, les plages clôturées... Il impose sa loi du silence. Aucune terre fertile n’avait auparavant vécu cette absence de mots. La chose est sérieuse, l’issue en est inconnue. Tous les individus sont perdus, hormis ceux qui gardent espoir, tissent des liens de fraternité, de solidarité et d’équité. Ce sont ces valeurs qui définissent la constitution d’un comité d’éthique/scientifique. Cette instance régulatrice des tests cliniques est l’objet d’étude principal de cet ouvrage qui s’intéresse également aux relations nord-sud dans la recherche biomédicale... Devant la gravité de l’heure et l’imminence du danger, l’homme doit apprendre la vigilance, la modération, l’esprit de scrupule et la maîtrise de soi dans le bonheur comme dans l’adversité. Rien ne sera plus pareil après le 11 mai 2020 : l’intelligence voguera, visitera l’espace, embrassera la nature et créera des outils de lutte contre une éventuelle pandémie...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The threats of emerging diseases have shaken certainties about health systems, the effectiveness of governance, lifestyles and the reality of national sovereignty. The Covid-19 Crisis analyzes the global issues related to the emergence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus through investigations and reflections related to both the epidemic itself (epidemiology, computerized surveillance tools and vaccines) and to the societal issues it raises (work, innovation, religious practices, behaviors and societal models). This eclectic approach highlights scientific working methods that meet the requirements of health crises, as well as technical solutions and societal practices adapted to epidemic situations. It also presents feedback and testimonies.

  • Author : Douglas A. Vakoch
  • Publisher : Springer Nature
  • Release : 2023-05-30
  • ISBN : 3031276655
  • Pages : 280 pages

Download or read book COVID Communication written by Douglas A. Vakoch and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-30 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on how we understand COVID-19—medically, socially, and rhetorically. Given the expectation that other flu pandemics will occur, it stresses the importance of examining how the public response is shaped in the face of global health emergencies. It considers questions such as how can pandemic language both limit and expand our understanding of disease as biomedical, social, and experiential? In what ways can health communication be improved through the study and application of rhetoric and the health humanities? COVID Communication fills a gap in the pandemic literature by promoting interdisciplinary analysis of communication methods, realized through a health humanities approach. It centers human experience and culture within conversations about the biological reality of a pandemic. This volume will be a welcome contribution to the scientific investigations and practice of psychology and public health professionals. Interdisciplinary perspective New insights on how a pandemic is understood Highlights the relevance to important usually neglected relevance for psychology and public health professionals Endorsements of COVID Communication “In an era of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, COVID Communication provides a smart, urgent alternative to our collective downward spiral, not only offering a fiery critique of our selfish and self-destructive present but also providing galvanizing, positive visions of what futures we might hope for.” — Shailendra Saxena, King George’s Medical University, India; editor of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19): Epidemiology, Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Therapeutics “COVID Communication shows that the pandemic affects us not only because it makes us sick or ruins our economy, but also because of how it is spoken, written, and thought about, ultimately because of how it is socially constructed. An original and very necessary look to arm ourselves intellectually against the pandemic.” — Alberto del Campo Tejedor, Pablo de Olavide University, Spain; author of La infame fama del andaluz “The COVID-19 pandemic represented a global challenge that needed nations and their people to come together, find a joint response, and build a narrative that was clear, consistent, inclusive, and respectful of people. The reality, however, is that the responses to the pandemic reflected the ideologies of national leaders, political leaders, media outlets, and activists, leading to a fragmented and at times polarized global discourse. This important work examines the different narratives that circulated within the information environment to explore how these may have led to differing levels of trust in politicians, in science, and in one another. Through an analysis of rhetoric across diverse nations and platforms, the chapters provide a framework that is crucial for understanding the interplay between discourse, cognition, and behavior.” — Darren Lilleker, Bournemouth University, UK; co-editor of Political Communication and COVID-19: Governance and Rhetoric in Times of Crisis “This book presents a collection of must-read scholarly chapters that illustrate a panoramic view of how people from different countries and cultures communicate about this global pandemic. These chapters paint a rich canvas of thoughts, emotions, reactions, and actions through communication expressions, ranging from intuitive rhetoric and probing cartoons to emotional memes and creative advertising. The book is a great resource for aiding health communication scholars, instructors, professionals, journalists, and students in enhancing their COVID-19 research, teaching, practice, reporting, and learning.” — Carolyn A. Lin, University of Connecticut, USA; co-editor of Communication Technology and Social Change: Theory and Implications “In an era of cultural anxiety caused by the global pandemic and social unrest, COVID Communication could not be timelier. Presenting broad cross-cultural and multi-modal perspectives on media portrayals of the illness that has caused so much suffering and uncertainty, this insightful book offers a ‘rhetorical toolkit’ that gives us tools to navigate the maze of modern communication with a deeper understanding of the power of language in the time of social media. It is a perfect resource for classes on media literacy, while it is useful to anyone who wants to become a more active, independent, and secure consumer of the media in the age of information abundance.” — Katja Plemenitaš, University of Maribor, Slovenia; co-author of Josip Hutter and the Dwelling Culture of Maribor “COVID-19, as a disaster and series of converging crises, has forever shaped society. COVID Communication offers an easy-to-read, unparalleled academic-practitioner focus to help understand the cultural, social, economic, political, community health, and personal risk assessment aspects of communication during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Together, in a ground- breaking analysis that enhances the rich intellectual tradition of the field of communications, each chapter in COVID Communication offers readers the opportunity to view multiple media sources and approaches that engender a deeper understanding of health information and communication during and after COVID-19 and its ensuing crises.” — DeMond S. Miller, Rowan University, USA; co-editor of Community Disaster Recovery and Resiliency: Exploring Global Opportunities and Challenges “With its twenty-one chapters exploring a wide spectrum of issues ranging from individual and social responses to the global coronavirus breakout to the divergent narrative patterns identified from various countries, COVID Communication is indeed a timely and significant guide to understanding the recent pandemic. The collection makes the reader realize and acknowledge the multitude of complex, intersecting factors and processes that are relevant to comprehend the coronavirus pandemic and to cope with its various representations.” — Şemsettin Tabur, Ankara Yildirim Beyazit University, Turkey; author of Contested Spaces in Contemporary North American Novels: Reading for Space

  • ISBN : 077663643X
  • Pages : 850 pages

Download or read book Vulnerable written by Colleen M. Flood and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 850 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which causes the disease known as COVID-19, has infected people in 212 countries so far and on every continent except Antarctica. Vast changes to our home lives, social interactions, government functioning and relations between countries have swept the world in a few months and are difficult to hold in one’s mind at one time. That is why a collaborative effort such as this edited, multidisciplinary collection is needed. This book confronts the vulnerabilities and interconnectedness made visible by the pandemic and its consequences, along with the legal, ethical and policy responses. These include vulnerabilities for people who have been harmed or will be harmed by the virus directly and those harmed by measures taken to slow its relentless march; vulnerabilities exposed in our institutions, governance and legal structures; and vulnerabilities in other countries and at the global level where persistent injustices harm us all. Hopefully, COVID-19 will forces us to deeply reflect on how we govern and our policy priorities; to focus preparedness, precaution, and recovery to include all, not just some. Published in English with some chapters in French.

Book Modelling Experiences of the COVID 19 Pandemic in Ibero America

Book La pand  mie de Covid 19

Download or read book La pand mie de Covid 19 written by Collectif and published by Éditions de l’IHEAL. This book was released on 2022-12-07 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La pandémie de Covid-19 a bouleversé les Amériques qui étaient, à l’automne 2021, le continent le plus touché au monde. Pourquoi ? Rétrospectivement, le continent américain présente plusieurs vulnérabilités : des inégalités économiques abyssales, un travail informel très important, une grande ouverture économique et culturelle sur les autres continents qui impliquent des mouvements intenses, notamment de personnes, ou encore la présence au pouvoir de régimes populistes peu enclins à prendre des mesures draconiennes. Les conséquences de la pandémie sur les sociétés américaines sont, elles aussi, profondes, parce qu’elles réactivent des lignes de fractures anciennes ou parce qu’elles font émerger de nouvelles configurations politiques ou sociales. Analyser un phénomène alors qu’il est encore en train de se dérouler, sans le recul dont on peut disposer une fois qu’on en connaît toutes les conséquences, est un exercice périlleux, mais néanmoins indispensable et attendu, en période de crise, de la part des praticiens des sciences sociales. C’est à cet exercice que se sont risqués les auteurs des douze contributions de cet ouvrage. Celui-ci ne cherche pas à tracer un tableau exhaustif de la pandémie sur le continent américain, mais à montrer comment certaines situations ou certaines thématiques se sont trouvées affectées par une réalité qui a pris tout le monde à l’improviste. Cet exercice de sciences sociales « à chaud » propose des éclairages importants à l’heure où tous les pays du monde cherchent à évaluer comment et combien la pandémie les a transformés.

Book Infodemic Disorder

Download or read book Infodemic Disorder written by Gevisa La Rocca and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-02-15 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This contributed volume identifies how the information processes of public institutions and citizens have changed throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, within a new context that emerged: the infodemic disorder. Public debate is largely characterized today by a crisis of the legitimacy of institutions, accompanied by a crisis of authority in public communication, leading to the emergency of a state of information disorder due specifically to the need to find information related to the coping of the pandemic. This condition is characterized by growing attention to issues related to ‘fake news’, ‘misinformation’, and ‘media manipulation’, that are intertwined in digital platform ecosystems, and the effects of which on democracy, public communication and research, and the sharing of information in the civic sphere are broad and far-reaching. This volume analyzes the links between communication strategies of public institutions, and the resulting citizen communication, in an attempt to tease out how communication processes have changed during the pandemic. It was decided to investigate this infodemic disorder as it appeared in three different geographical contexts: Europe, Canada and Mexico and, at the same time, to bring out the formal and informal coping strategies implemented by public institutions and citizens. Beginning with an introduction to the crisis of information created by the pandemic, the contributors build a theoretical framework, provide contagion data, and subsequently, for each of the geographical contexts analyzed, explore the public communication strategies and those activated by citizens seeking to share information.

Book Lessons for Implementing Human Rights from COVID 19

Download or read book Lessons for Implementing Human Rights from COVID 19 written by Jędrzej Skrzypczak and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-30 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the effect of the pandemic on human rights; civil and political rights (CPR); economic, social, and cultural rights (ESCR); and freedoms around the world. The COVID-19 pandemic radically changed many aspects of the lives of individuals and entire societies. This crisis and the unprecedented experience required extraordinary solutions, regulations, and rapid responses from decision-makers to limit the spread of the disease and protect societies. To this end, during this period, many countries chose to impose states of emergency, resulting in the granting of extraordinary powers to the executive. This has sometimes been a very convenient pretext for introducing various types of restrictions, oppressive surveillance, and other legal arrangements that can be qualified as human rights violations. The authors make a scholarly summary of this period, identifying possible rights violations — but above all — recommendations for the future. This crisis has shown how important it is to have universal, equitable health and social protection systems that cover all community members equally and without discrimination, and the authors remodel the concept of "human rights" and "human needs". The book covers varied examples from lockdowns to vaccination to information control, across Spain, Poland, South Africa and Uganda, the Czech Republic, Belarus and Ukraine, and Russia. This book will appeal to higher-level students and scholars of law, political science, and international relations and will also be helpful for public policymakers at national and international levels.

Book Economics in One Virus

Download or read book Economics in One Virus written by Ryan A. Bourne and published by Cato Institute. This book was released on 2021-04-07 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A truly excellent book that explains where our pandemic response went wrong, and how we can understand those failings using the tools of economics." —Tyler Cowen, Holbert L. Harris Chair of Economics at George Mason University and coauthor of the blog Marginal Revolution Have you ever stopped to wonder why hand sanitizer was missing from your pharmacy for months after the COVID-19 pandemic hit? Why some employers and employees were arguing over workers being re-hired during the first COVID-19 lockdown? Why passenger airlines were able to get their own ring-fenced bailout from Congress? Economics in One Virus answers all these pandemic-related questions and many more, drawing on the dramatic events of 2020 to bring to life some of the most important principles of economic thought. Packed with supporting data and the best new academic evidence, those uninitiated in economics will be given a crash-course in the subject through the applied case-study of the COVID-19 pandemic, to help explain everything from why the U.S. was underprepared for the pandemic to how economists go about valuing the lives saved from lockdowns. After digesting this highly readable, fast-paced, and provocative virus-themed economic tour, readers will be able to make much better sense of the events that they've lived through. Perhaps more importantly, the insights on everything from the role of the price mechanism to trade and specialization will grant even those wholly new to economics the skills to think like an economist in their own lives and when evaluating the choices of their political leaders.
