Societal resilience is relatively a newly emerging concept in academia. It requires extensive research and more interdisciplinary studies. The concept of societal resilience draws its root from different theories created over time, such as James Samuel Coleman's concept of Social Capital, Anthony Giddens' structuration theory, Manuel Castells' organizational theory, and Niki Frantzeskaki's conceptualization of Urban Resilience which solidified the concept of Societal Resilience.
This book provides a substantial critique on post-modernism theories in the area for valid interpretations and analyses of the phenomena of disease response and pathological behavior. It studies the shifts in modern social values and illness behavior in contemporary society, especially under COVID-19. This book also identifies best practices of interventional and innovative solutions that deal with pandemics. There will also be a specific focus on big-pandemic data and statistics, how pandemics are monitored globally, regionally, and locally, and the analysis of deeper insights behind data numbers and statistics. There will also be a focus on the social side, looking at illnesses and the different social relationships and human behavior during the pandemic.
This book is essential for academia, professors, professionals, graduate students, policy makers, along with experts, professionals, and academics within the fields of sociology, anthropology, law, economics, political sciences, data management, education, nursing and medical sciences, public health, and other academic disciplines.
