With the blog-series \u201cCorona & Society\u201d, Das Progressive Zentrum joins the debate on what society and politics can learn from the crisis, both politically and conceptually.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this time of upheaval, we want to detect and record tendencies early on so that necessary processes of change can be initiated in good time. In doing so, we understand crises as historical caesuras that open windows of opportunity for shaping social conditions. What matters to us is that the virus\u2019 course of events currently only gives preliminary and cautious diagnoses and prognoses. It is more about gathering ideas and observation \u2013 not about any final conclusions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A very political virus<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

The outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic caught Poland in a politically loaded moment. Maria Sk\u00f3ra<\/a>, Head of Programme International Dialogue at Das Progressive Zentrum, has analysed the societal and political consequences of the sudden pandemic in Poland. In \u201cA very political virus\u201d<\/a>, she writes that \u201cthe sudden emergence of the coronavirus shook the country, exposing the vulnerability of its leadership\u201d. She predicts a stormy 2021 and second-year of the pandemic for the Polish society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ever Closed Borders. The fate of Schengen during the Corona crisis<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Responding to the COVID-19 outbreak in Europe, massive mobility restrictions were imposed in the Schengen area. Daniel Schade<\/a>, Visiting Fellow at DPZ, analyses the unilateral steps taken by Schengen states to reopen borders to third countries. In his article \u201cEver Closed Borders<\/a>. The fate of Schengen during the Corona crisis\u201d Daniel. Schade summarises that in order to avoid any serious damage to the functioning of the Schengen area, members need to stick to common rules and act in together, rather than in a single-handed fashion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The future of work and robots after Covid-19<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

While Covid-19 spells bad news for most, the pandemic is set to cause particular hardship among blue-collar workers in industrialised economies as automation might take another leap forward.\u00a0Bob Hanck\u00e9<\/a>, Associate Professor in Political Economy at the London School of Economics and Political Science and one of his PhD candidates,\u00a0Toon van Overbeke<\/a>, delineate automation developments in the course of economic crises in their article\u00a0\u201cThe future of work and robots after Covid-19\u201d<\/a>. They conclude that much-needed political and economic imperatives have to ensure this transition to be inclusive and to not leave workers behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gender equality and the pandemic<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

It has been said that after a pandemic, nothing would be the same. Indeed, in these past months, to put it bluntly, gender equality has become the critical socio-political question of our time. In \u201cGender equality and the pandemic\u201d<\/a> Ania Skrzypek<\/a>, Director for Research and Training at the Foundations for European Progressive Studies (FEPS), and Laeticia Thissen<\/a>, Policy Adviser on Gender Equality at the FEPS, assess the emancipation of women during the pandemic and that it took a virus for the words \u2018women\u2019 and \u2018leadership\u2019 to come together: While they address the surge of domestic violence, the appraisal is generally that the image of women emerging from the lockdown is not the one of a victim. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Covid-19: Reflections on Crisis<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

In \u201cCovid-19: Reflections on Crisis\u201d<\/a> Charles S. Maier<\/a>, Leverett Saltonstall Professor of History at Harvard University, aims to find answers to the questions \u2018What is a crisis?\u2019 and \u2018What do crises do?\u2019. Beginning from its etymological roots in Greek, Maier describes the meaning and becoming of a \u201ccrisis\u201d: \u201cThe catastrophe becomes catastrophic (and a crisis) because earlier choices as well as immediate responses have been made badly.\u201d He draws the conclusion that \u201cthis crisis is the product of social choices we failed to make\u201d and it can only be \u201cresolved through significant self-transformation\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
