Great Power Rivalries in the Aftermath of a Global Pandemic

The question of a shifting international order–especially regarding rising China and its significance for existing hegemonic rivalries and global governance predated the Covid-19 crisis. Yet the pandemic’s ramifications and the ways in which governments have cooperated, competed, and managed the outbreak provide a lens through which to analyze ongoing global geopolitical rivalry and reality.
How should we compare crisis management within and between liberal democracies with that of authoritarian China? What trends within the current international order will the crisis accelerate or accentuate? How should Europe understand and approach both the US and China and position itself regarding these two powers? How should we integrate lessons learned from the Covid-19 crisis into a broader understanding of international security and cooperation?
