This book is a timely exploration of an unprecedented, cataclysmic
pandemic episode. It examines certain critical aspects of
socio-scientific theory across a variety of diverse themes, and
through an epistemic lens. The book investigates the general theory of
pandemic episodes and their adverse long-term effects on human and
environmental wellbeing. It includes an in-depth study of COVID-19 but
also looks to the future to contemplate potential pandemics to come.
The existing approach to the study of pandemics is critically examined
in terms of the prevalent isolated and thus mutated way of viewing
human and mechanical relations in the name of specialization and
modernity. The book presents a novel model of science-economy-society
moral inclusiveness that forms a distinctive theoretical approach to
the issue of normalizing all forms of pandemic challenges. It is
methodologically different from existing economic theory, including
the critical study of microeconomic foundations of macroeconomics.
Human and environmental existence along with its multidisciplinary
outlook of unity of knowledge between modernity, traditionalism, and
socio-cultural values is emphasized in the treatment and cure of
pandemic episodes. The book is a unique reference work, offering fresh
wisdom within the moral methodological worldview.
