The Post-COVID-19 Pandemic World Order:
Imposing New Realities
Mahmood Monshipouri PhD.
Abstract
Treating global pandemics must be seen as a form of investment for the future
of public health rather than a temporary, political response to national or
international crises. Meeting this challenge need not necessarily lead to a
degradation of norms and values in the pursuit of politics and global great
power rivalries. It is urgent to search for a paradigm shift away from a
nationalist-populist solution and toward global cooperation and coordination.
A reliance on empirical science, combined with value-loaded and evidence-
based approaches, is essential to controlling the spread of this infectious disease
and being better prepared to cope with its possible next waves. Trump's
magical hopes, dreams, and thinking are unlikely to restore normalcy to the
lives of multiple millions of people-both in the Unites States and around the
world. At a time when we all face a world turned upside down, the need for a
tenable vision and strong leadership has never been more urgent and apparent.
Trump has failed to offer a comprehensive plan and national strategy for
dealing with the COVID-19 virus. Hope alone is not a strategy nor can it
provide the optimal level of solidarity needed for coping with the myriad
challenges involved in effectively containing and eliminating COVID-19. This
