Book Description
Leading global experts, brought together by Johns Hopkins University, discuss national and international trends in a post-COVID-19 world. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has killed hundreds of thousands of people and infected millions while also devastating the world economy. The consequences of the pandemic, however, go much further: they threaten the fabric of national and international politics around the world. As Henry Kissinger warned, "The coronavirus epidemic will forever alter the world order." What will be the consequences of the pandemic, and what will a post-COVID world order look like? No institution is better suited to address these issues than Johns Hopkins University, which has convened experts from within and outside of the university to discuss world order after COVID-19. In a series of essays, international experts in public health and medicine, economics, international security, technology, ethics, democracy, and governance imagine a bold new vision for our future. Essayists include: Graham Allison, Anne Applebaum, Philip Bobbitt, Hal Brands, Elizabeth Economy, Jessica Fanzo, Henry Farrell, Peter Feaver, Niall Ferguson, Christine Fox , Jeremy A. Greene, Hahrie Han, Kathleen H. Hicks, William Inboden, Tom Inglesby, Jeffrey P. Kahn, John Lipsky, Margaret MacMillan, Anna C. Mastroianni, Lainie Rutkow, Kori Schake, Eric Schmidt, Thayer Scott, Benn Steil, Janice Gross Stein, James B. Steinberg, Johannes Urpelainen, Dora Vargha, Sridhar Venkatapuram, and Thomas Wright. In collaboration with and appreciation of the book's co-editors, Professors Hal Brands and Francis J. Gavin of the Johns Hopkins SAIS Henry A. Kissinger Center for Global Affairs, Johns Hopkins University Press is pleased to donate funds to the Maryland Food Bank, in support of the university's food distribution efforts in East Baltimore during this period of food insecurity due to COVID-19 pandemic hardships.

Book Description
COVID-19 may be an historical turning point for global capitalism. It has revealed the crisis of neoliberal globalization; however, this does not automatically lead to the ultimate defeat of capitalism or its neoliberal incarnation. The authors in this collection posit that a new framework cannot be built on the values and beliefs of current-day consumer capitalist society; resistance in the pandemic age should be based on the values and beliefs that could be the foundation of a new, postcapitalist society. This book formulates a tentative revolutionary program that could take advantage of the COVID-19 environment to defeat and transcend capitalism.

Book Description
This book adds to the discussion from Volume 1 by providing insights and stimulating new thinking about the changing nature of services and marketing, service work and workers, and service experiences during and after the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, particularly focusing on services marketing. This book serves as a useful resource for business practitioners and academics in the areas of service management and marketing responses during a pandemic. Each chapter deals with specific current issues within these industries due to COVID-19 and issues that will come up post-pandemic. As COVID-19 is expected to change the service practice and promote the utilization of novel methods, such as untact marketing, untact service, telecommuting, alternative work arrangements, job crafting, and new work skills, a range of examples and cases are provided to elaborate on applying these emerging new concepts within the service sector.

Building on this, the book then sets out how we can improve our psychological and social resilience, to safeguard ourselves against the psychological effects of future pandemics.

Book Description
The COVID-19 pandemic has shaken our world to an extent unprecedented in modern history. While the acute phases of the crisis appear to have subsided, the central question remains: How will COVID-19 develop in the years and decades to come? Are we facing a future in which the virus becomes endemic and integrated into our daily lives, similar to the flu? Or could there be renewed pandemic outbreaks, repeatedly plunging the world into uncertainty? Can a ‘controlled normality’ be achieved, in which we learn to live with the virus without it permanently dominating our daily lives? This book takes a comprehensive look at the scientific, medical and social perspectives on the future of COVID-19. The author sheds light on the evolutionary development of the virus, the opportunities and limitations of vaccines, new treatment options and the influence of political and social measures. It also analyses the long-term effects on healthcare systems and global economic structures. The book not only provides scientifically sound information, but also addresses the psychological and social challenges that we will face as we live with COVID-19 as a long-term threat. It discusses how future pandemic preparations could be designed and what role international cooperation and scientific progress will play.

Book Description
This book aims to assess the experience of education during COVID-19 pandemic and explore the future of application of technologies and artificial intelligence in education. Education delivery requires the support of new technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, and machine learning to fight and aspire to new diseases. The academic community and those interested in education agree that education after the corona pandemic will not be the same as before. The book also questions the role of accreditation bodies (e.g., AACSB, etc.) to ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of technology tools in achieving distinguished education in times of crisis.

Book Description
The COVID-19 pandemic presented unique global health, economic, and social challenges that required urgent and coordinated action by countries and international organisations worldwide. The G20 countries, for instance, supported initiatives for equitable vaccine access, strengthened their respective healthcare systems, and promoted pandemic preparedness on a global scale. Not all the G20 economies are equal, however, and there were disparities in their COVID-19 responses and the outcomes. Indeed, the challenges they faced during the pandemic were unique, to begin with, given the differences in the structures and workings of their healthcare systems. In this post-COVID-19 era characterised by greater awareness that health security is of paramount importance to the overall security of nations, it is imperative to evaluate, through a comprehensive lens, the efficiency and effectiveness of healthcare systems.

Book Description
The use of telemedicine was quite limited in most OECD countries before the COVID-19 pandemic, held back by regulatory barriers and hesitancy from patients and providers. In early 2020, as COVID-19 massively disrupted in-person care, governments moved quickly to promote the use of telemedicine.
