Content:
"This book presents an international and comparative exploration of how the COVID-19 global pandemic has affected and impacted on issues of human rights, security and law. Throughout the world the COVID-19 global pandemic has fundamentally impacted and altered our way of life. As this book sets out, all states have had to contend with similar challenges as well as competing interests and obligations affecting human rights and security. These challenges present very few simple choices but nonetheless carry enormous consequences. Organised into two thematic and distinct, yet interrelated parts, first on theoretical and practical challenges for human rights and second on threats to personal, collective and global security, the book examines how the ability of states to safeguard our fundamental rights and security, broadly defined, has been challenged and that questions about the legality and legal impact of recent responses to COVID-19 will persist for some time. It is often said that global problems require coordinated global solutions, but the various responses to the pandemic by states suggest a notable lack of a consensus amongst the international community"--
