Beschreibung

The pandemic has brought to the surface human fragilities that contradict the euphoria of the fourth industrial revolution with aggravated social inequality and racial discrimination that characterize our societies. This book argues that the virus reveals the deep problems of our dominant mode of production and consumption.
