COVID-19, global inequality, economic costs, politics
Abstract
With the growth of the global economy and population, global inequality is becoming increasingly prominent. This inequality is not only reflected in income, education, healthcare, etc., but also affects economic development and social stability between different countries and regions. To address these issues, governments around the world have taken a series of measures to promote economic growth and social equity, but the results have not been significant. The COVID-19 has aggravated the seriousness of this problem. This study aims to explore the global inequality reflected in national policies during the COVID-19. Specifically, we will analyze the views of scholars from all over the world on this issue, summarize their corresponding views, analyze the specific status quo and main problems of global inequality in the context of COVID-19, and finally come to the conclusion that the existence of COVID-19 has indeed led to the intensification of global inequality, and solve long-term problems such as global inequality, racial discrimination, marginalization and colonial resource exploitation, Therefore, it is necessary to persist in the formulation, optimization, and implementation of relevant strategies for a long time in order to fundamentally optimize the problem and ultimately achieve the goal of solving it.
