Politics In The Time Of Global Pandemic

The Covid-19 pandemic is a global event unlike any other experienced in the contemporary era. It’s size, scope, reach, and implications are enormous, ongoing, and unequal. Outcomes—from how people all over the world will live their daily lives to whether democracy will survive—are all in question.

In keeping with Suffolk University’s historic mission of access, opportunity, and engagement, faculty have produced in collaboration with the Ford Hall Forum and GBH’s Forum Network, an opportunity to take a seat in the classroom to participate in a survey course for everyone—homework included!

This speaker series was designed for incoming students in the summer of 2020. It is a broad examination of the themes most of interest to political scientists and public policy experts as a weekly virtual course offered by Suffolk University. Panelists discuss the differential impact of the pandemic around the world, and the varying responses.
