As the COVID-19 pandemic has unfolded, stark social inequalities have increasingly been revealed and, in many cases, been exacerbated by the global health crisis.

This book explores these inequalities, identifying three thematic strands: power and governance, gender, and marginalised communities. By examining these three themes in relation to the effects of the pandemic, the book uncovers how unequal the pandemic truly is. It brings together invaluable insights from a range of international scholars across multiple disciplines to critically analyse how these inequalities have played out in the context of COVID-19 as a first step towards achieving social justice.

Reviews for Beyond the Virus: Multidisciplinary and International Perspectives on Inequalities Raised by COVID-19

This important series of essays offers a hugely valuable international and interdisciplinary insight into the multiple forms of inequality which have been exposed and exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Keith Syrett, University of Bristol Alarmed by how lopsided social injustices get exacerbated under a global health crisis, Germain and Yong have assembled an impressive set of international contributors sharing their concerns. They emerged from this murky field with a wide-ranging account that is at once clarifying, devastating, and hopeful. Marie-Andree Jacob, University of Leeds
