This
book studies the impact of COVID-19 in South Asia. With case studies
from India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan, the volume assesses the long-term
effects of COVID on the countries’ political economy, public health,
education, and society and offers recommendations for creating a more
robust and resilient society for South Asian countries in response to
the threat of future pandemics. The authors also make suggestions for
shared policy goals, identifying smart strategies, and aligning policy
instruments into short and long-term policy decisions to address wider
societal issues of economy, migration, refugees, and averting the
threats of extremism.
Topical and comprehensive, this book will be
indispensable for scholars and researchers of sociology, medical
sociology, political sociology, social anthropology, South Asian
studies, public policy, political economy, and political studies.
