“…Additionally, Wuyts et al (2020) analyzed the interaction among the circular economy principles and COVID-19 related things on healthcare and public health, which was instructive for the economic cure. In addition, Ali T. et al (2020) started from the theory of state capacity to explain why it was unable to sustain a lockdown to stop the spread of COVID-19 in Bangladesh, a densely populated, low-income country. The gender differences also received attention.…”

Research background: The outbreak and spread of COVID-19 brought disastrous influences to the development of human society, especially the development of economy. Purpose of the article: Considering that knowing about the situations of the existing studies about COVID-19 and economy is not only helpful to understand the research progress and the connections between COVID-19 and economy, but also provides effective suggestions for fighting against COVID-19 and protecting economy, this paper analyzes the existing studies on COVID-19 and economy from the perspective of bibliometrics. Methods: Firstly, the discussion starts from the statistical analysis, in which the basic distributions of the studies on different countries/regions, different publication sources, different publication years, etc., are presented. Then, the paper shows the cooperation situations of the researchers from analyzing the related citation networks, co-citation networks and cooperation networks. Further, the theme analysis of the related studies is presented, in which the related co-occurrence networks are shown, and then the detailed analyses of the studies are introduced. Based on these analyses, the discussions about future research are presented, and finally we draw a conclusion. Findings & value added: The analyses not only present the basic situation on the research about COVID-19 and Economy, but also show the future research trends, which can provide meaningful research expectations.

“…This is supported by several other studies. For example, Ali et al (2020) [51] report that compliance to lockdown measures for most people in Bangladesh was conditional on proper relief distribution by the government (the lack of which, due to weak institutional capacity, lead to the effective end of lockdown). Choudhury et al (2020) [52] also show that food security policies played a crucial role in ensuring lockdown compliance in India.…”

Countries across the world responded to the COVID-19 pandemic with what might well be the set of biggest state-led mobility and activity restrictions in the history of humankind. But how effective were these measures across countries? Compared to multiple recent studies that document an association between such restrictions and the control of the contagion, we use an instrumental variable approach to estimate the causal effect of these restrictions on mobility, and the growth rate of confirmed cases and deaths during the first wave of the pandemic. Using the level of stringency in the rest of the world to predict the level of stringency of the restriction measures in a country, we show while stricter contemporaneous measures affected mobility, stringency in seven to fourteen days mattered most for containing the contagion. Heterogeneity analysis, by various institutional inequalities, reveals that even though the restrictions reduced mobility more in relatively less-developed countries, the causal effect of a reduction in mobility was higher in more developed countries. We propose several explanations. Our results highlight the need to complement mobility and activity restrictions with other health and information measures, especially in less-developed countries, to combat the COVID-19 pandemic effectively.

“…At the same time, the overlapping crises demonstrated variegated coping strategies as well as alterations in how people perceive their roles in their democracies and enact their citizenship rights. State failures or inabilities to provide relief, sufficient social safety net protections, or adequate healthcare have further weakened societies across the global South (Ali et al, 2021;Jankó, 2020). Critical and nuanced analyses of these issues open up opportunities to address barriers and thereby encourage equitable changes.…”

Climate change, COVID-19, and the co-production of injustices: a feminist reading of overlapping crises

The overlapping global socio-ecological crises of climate change and COVID-19 pandemic have simultaneously dominated discussions since 2020. The connections between them expose underbellies of structural inequities and systemic marginalizations across scales and sites. While ongoing climate change amplifies, compounds, and creates new forms of injustices and stresses, all of which are interlinked and interconnected, the emergence of COVID-19 pandemic has also co-created new challenges, vulnerabilities, and burdens, as well as reinforcing old ones. An intersectional analysis of these overlapping but uneven global crises demonstrates the importance of investigating and addressing them simultaneously through a feminist lens. This allows for a more nuanced understanding of the co-production of injustices structurally, materially, and discursively.
