Political Economy of COVID-19: Understanding the Dynamics of a Global Pandemic, provides a theoretical, conceptual and methodological approach to the understanding of the pandemic through multiple case analyses. It produces and discusses COVID-19 research with interdisciplinary perspectives by addressing how the pandemic distinctly impacted the local and global economy and how numerous stakeholders responded. The book is truly global and interdisciplinary, through chapter contributions and case analysis from practitioners and emerging and established scholars. The ideas raised in this book have the potential to take central elements of post-pandemic political, social and economic thinking to a new line of inquiry and provide more compelling nuances. The book will be essential reading for researchers, students and scholars interested in development studies, political economy, historicity of the pandemic, conspiratorial debates and country specific policy response.

Luke Amadi holds a PhD in Development Studies from the University of Port Harcourt, Nigeria with specialization in political economy of development.

Prince Ikechukwu Igwe is political economist, policy and development expert.
