“…More importantly, the state in the post-pandemic world may not relinquish its role in public life, so preventing a return to a predominantly market-based economy (Pennington, 2020; see also Rossi & Mingardi, 2020). A similar conclusion is also drawn by Coyne and Yatsyshina (2020), who notice that one of the consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic is the rise of police states in different parts of the world.…”

This article analyses the Covid‐19 pandemic narrative through the lens of the ordoliberal concept of interdependence of orders. This approach explains why the measures adopted eschewed market‐based solutions and suggests what their real driving forces were. The ordoliberal approach asserts that the concentration of power problem is not only a direct outcome of the government response to the crisis, but is also the main cause of the ways chosen to deal with it. This power concentration reached very dangerous levels, which affected social, technological, political and even academic orders, forming the system of incentives that encouraged all crucial players to support the chosen methods.

“…A spontaneous and autonomous mode of governance involving private charitable organizations means that donations are raised more broadly, donated materials are distributed more efficiently in a public health emergency, and the long‐term sustainable development of Chinese philanthropy is promoted. To combat the COVID‐19 pandemic, many countries, including China, implemented a variety of emergency measures, many of which relied heavily on police powers, resulting in the emergence of pandemic police states (Coyne & Yatsyshina, 2020). A non‐monocentric system could prevent pandemic police states from abusing their power.…”

In response to public complaints about the chaotic management of donations during the emergency, the site of the first identified COVID‐19 case, Wuhan (in central China), underwent a contingent governance transition. And given the public complaints about the disorganized management of donations during the early stage of emergency management in Wuhan in January 2020, local governments initiated a minor governance transition in philanthropy, involving multiple stakeholders such as public and private charities, as well as private enterprises. In contrast to the abundance of literature on governance actors such as the state, the market, and societal actors, this review discusses the changes in governance mechanisms using publicly available data from governmental websites, policy documents, and news reports. It examines a minor governance change in local philanthropy from hierarchical bureaucratic governance to embryotic non‐monocentric governance and to expedient collaborative/interactive governance. Moreover, it highlights the yet‐to‐be institutionalized characteristics of the newly emerging governance models in China, a country where the traditional mode of hierarchical governance is dominant. This article not only adds to the body of evidence on governance failures caused by monocentric bureaucracy, but it also contributes to the literature on public governance transition in China's philanthropic sector and the state‐society relations more broadly.

“…Table 2 presents ten studies examining different forms of violence (e.g., police brutality, riots, shooting), mostly during COVID-19. In addition to the institutional violence, environmental injustice, and segregationist and discriminatory laws that faced, majorly, the minorities and immigrants in most countries is the COVID-19 pandemic which stretches structural racism in many countries [30,37,[60][61][62][63][64][65]. It has become common knowledge that "pandemics always follow the fault line of society" [33]-structural or institutional racism.…”

COVID-19: Evidenced Health Disparity

Health disparity is an unacceptable, unjust, or inequitable difference in health outcomes among different groups of people that affects access to optimal health care, as well as deterring it. Health disparity adversely affects disadvantaged subpopulations due to a higher incidence and prevalence of a particular disease or ill health. Existing health disparity determines whether a disease outbreak such as coronavirus disease 2019, caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), will significantly impact a group or a region. Hence, health disparity assessment has become one of the focuses of many agencies, public health practitioners, and other social scientists. Successful elimination of health disparity at all levels requires pragmatic approaches through an intersectionality framework and robust data science.
