- Towards a Multipolar Order Post Pandemic
Abstract
Not since the end of the Cold War has the concept of multipolarity been more salient as the global community grapples with COVID-19. The pandemic is a threat multiplier, cascading from a health and socio-economic crisis to a political and security crisis as countries turn inward and adopt more populist and nationalistic policies. Since the outbreak of the pandemic, the call for global solidarity and deeper multilateral efforts to combat it has gained momentum across the globe.
