Summary, etc |
The coronavirus pandemic is one of those historical moments when our past, present and future seem to collide. Humanity is confronted by an ignominious death death reduced to a statistic. The fear of dying from an invisible, unknown enemy has changed our modes of thinking, living and being, both public and private, even as lockdowns and State surveillance measures ostensibly distancing healthy society from the impure, unhealthy Other have violated fundamental human rights and liberties. Humankind is living its kairos, its propitious moment and opportunity to take a decision one which will impact each one of us. The pandemic has engendered a moral crisis and vacuum. |
