About this ebook

This book is the outcome of an intellectual exercise to understand our post-COVID society. Our planet is convalescing from one of the worst pandemics in living memory – the whole of 2020 has been sacrificed to combat the iniquities perpetrated by a sub-microscopic conglomeration of proteins and nucleic acids, a virus that has achieved immortality in the annals of history as SARS-COVID-19. Deaths from COVID-19 in USA have crossed 405,399 – the number of Americans who died in the Second World War. The most important and, most far-reaching effect has of course been that of isolation, ‘lockdown’ in colloquial usage. That term is now probably the most widely understood English word across the inhabited world from the poles to the tropics, even in non-English speaking countries like China and Japan. The primary effect of this lockdown has been on the economy – from developed to developing countries, there are none that may claim to have escaped the paralyzing debilitation caused by an instant and total absence of all forms of commerce. Long queues in front of provision stores, slow starvation as savings dried up, people begging for scraps, people dying by the roadside and railway tracks as they set out to walk the length and breadth of the country en-route to their homes from their places of work – all these shocking pictures are now part of our heritage. An online society has cropped up as the new normal one, sustained by internet, apps, tweeter, and face-book and so on. It is needless to say that this digital society is the child of no other than the Corona virus. What is different today is the loss of vision. Men have distanced themselves not only from their friends but also from their productive energy and sustainable creativity.
