Pandemic: The Day After

Our associate Ioannis Sidiropoulos recently published an article in Kathimerini newspaper.

In the article, he mentions that the pandemic of Covid-19 has caused serious disruption to the activities of the modern world, canceling out many of its characteristics in the short term, and moreover, reinforcing counterbalancing attitudes towards the model of an open liberal economy. According to the author, under the current circumstances, while international organizations demonstrate weak or ineffective reflexes, people seem to seek safety and protection in their countries. There, they are willing to surrender uncomplainingly many of their, under normal circumstances, non-negotiable individual rights and freedoms.
