The book Covid-19 and Governance is just out with 24 chapters by scholars from across the world.

They show how diverse variables shape responses to the pandemic in Asia, the Middle East, Europe, the Americas and Africa.

Responses are part of a confluence of experience with infectious diseases, healthcare capacity, government capability, trust in government, state-society relations, varieties of market economies, and cultural outlooks.

‘Simply the best and most authoritative set of articles yet produced on the Covid-19 pandemic’, Anthony Giddens.
