Description
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about profound changes to our daily lives. In "Pandemic Societies", experts from various academic disciplines come together to explore how their fields are being transformed in this new context. The book examines the ways in which the pandemic is altering everyday experiences, such as the way we meet to play, perform, and entertain ourselves. It also looks at the broader institutional and political contexts that shape these activities. By understanding the impact of the pandemic on our lives, "Pandemic Societies" aims to help us think about how to steer this new society and reinvent institutions and practices that are often associated with face-to-face interactions. This book is a valuable contribution to the discussion on how to navigate and shape the world in the aftermath of the pandemic.
