Redefining the global ‘new normal’ after Covid-19
PUNDITS are comparing the Covid-19 pandemic to the Spanish Flu of 1918 to tease out lessons for how to combat future pandemics.
The world was not as globalised then as it is today; many of today’s nations were still colonies of the dominant European powers. The League of Nations, the precursor to the United Nations, was formed as a feeble attempt to right all the things that seemed wrong with how the world was organised back then.
The major distraction which followed was the Cold War and its manifestations in Central Europe, the Middle East, Latin America, mainland China, and on the Korean Peninsula. The most remarkable cultural achievement after the Second World War was the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
