“…But they have not previously had the opportunity to respond to such a global and complex health risk. A strong international law frame in place, which anticipates action by different actors (flag States, port States, companies) to manage the protection of public health, but “systemic weaknesses risk limiting responses to the current crisis” ( Klein, 2020 ). The question, therefore, is not one of whether the agreements are being respected or not, nor whether they are being misapplied on board ships, the real question addresses a level of international cooperation which is a novel as the novel coronavirus itself.…”

In the COVID-19 context will coastal States open their ports to cruise ships to meet the needs of people in danger? Can they prefer a more self-centered approach to protect their territory and exercise their sovereignty? The purpose of this study is to analyze the legal framework for the management of health risk by coastal States in the context of the coronavirus threat on cruise ships. The lack of a clearly defined common management strategy in face of major health risk complicates the situation. Only cooperation between flag States and port States will make it possible to overcome any conflicts of implementation between the State sovereignty principle and assistance to persons in distress at sea.

“…By mid-late 2020, there were around 200,000 merchant seafarers trapped aboard ships, in violation of international laws and their individual human rights. Yet, ship owners, charterers, governments and cargo owners have all denied responsibility for resolving the problem (Klein, 2020).…”

Purpose This viewpoint takes up the Covid-19 pandemic as a trigger for a research agenda around societally engaged international business (IB) research. Design/methodology/approach The paper is organized as a viewpoint. First, it provides an overview of Covid-19 research in business and management and IB in particular. Second, it introduces a societally engaged IB perspective, around poverty and human rights as well as trade. Findings The paper offers an annotated introduction to the paper contributions of the special issue with three clusters, “re-reading the crisis”, “crisis protectionism” and “firm strategies during the pandemic”. Research limitations/implications The paper points to future research opportunities in terms of crisis management and societally engaged IB research. Practical implications The Covid-19 crisis poses new questions for research on international business and its related disciplines. In particular, the political, economic and societal disruption which the pandemic has caused highlights the importance of addressing broader societal issues such as climate change, poverty and inequality through a purposeful and forward-looking research agenda. Originality/value The paper and the special issue are some of the first combined research outputs on the Covid-19 pandemic in international business.

“…Anthropocentric conditions and coping with COVID-19 (notably: Barbosa et al, 2020;Frame and Hemmings, 2020;Gössling et al, 2020;Gromyko, 2020;Hughes and Convey, 2020;Klein, 2020;Lorenzo et al, 2020), but they differ with regard to political responses. Both feature an unravelling world with increasing stresses and discontinuities (Brannen et al, 2020;Dabla-Norris et al 2020;Gaub, 2020;Schlee and Opper, 2020).…”

Antarctica’s Gateways and Gatekeepers: Polar scenarios in a polarising Anthropocene

As the short to medium-term social and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic dominate world issues, longer-term environmental and geopolitical concerns remain of great concern. However, the appetite for tackling complex transdisciplinary anthropogenic change processes may be receding rather than accelerating. In this essay, we propose that Antarctica, the continent of peace and science, a place that assumes a role as the global imaginary Other, where short- and long-term horizons co-exist, is a site where signs of global regeneration in the Anthropocene should be clear. To provoke discussion, we imagine two scenarios set in the five Gateway Cities of Antarctica to 2050. In the ‘Gatekeepers’ scenario, there is a fragmented global order with minimal unregulated behaviour based on narrowly defined national interests; in the ‘Gateways’ scenario, values-based partnerships generate novel institutional arrangements. By contrasting these polar opposites as a performative act, we highlight the need for future-making at the interface between science and policy.
