Mehr zum Buch

The paper examines China's COVID-19 response, highlighting its effectiveness in controlling the virus through early and stringent measures like social distancing and lockdowns. While these actions successfully prevented subsequent waves of infection, they came at a significant cost, including severe restrictions on civil liberties and intentional violations of human rights. The analysis also addresses the impact on marginalized groups, revealing increased inequality and discrimination during the pandemic. This critical examination sheds light on the balance between public health and individual rights in crisis management.
