Will COVID-19 Be Guilty Of The End of Globalization And The New World Order?

Effects of COVID-19 Assessment

The coronavirus epidemic (COVID-19) in the world has been spreading exponentially and endangers the population as a whole, I am talking about a worldwide fight against an invisible entity. This virus has currently manifested some disadvantages of broad international integration and world trade. In this essay I would like to focus on the geopolitical aspect of the situation that the question asks, will COVID-19 be guilty of the end of globalization and the new world order?

Suddenly, all kinds of companies have seen the risks of being dependent on global supply chains, which could lead to a solution to create supply nationally, these supplies not only come from China, as many speculate, but also from different parts of the world, and thanks to Places like Wuhan, Italy, and Iran are frowning on this virus, which even some scientists dare to name COVID-19 discriminatively as the Chinese virus. At the moment we see how governments have implemented prohibitions such as border closings, more travel requirements, and even export restrictions. These examples are visible in Mexico as around the world.

All these problems that the coronavirus has created lead me to think about the things that I would change since in my opinion COVID-19 is the best excuse to change the system of government and globalization around the world since the first-world countries like Example The United States is in the decline of power and the Russians, and the Chinese have been arming forces to change things. The model of globalization that prevailed until now has been politically questioned, the current health situation has put international organizations and has opened the door to a new configuration of the world order where technology and the state are going to play an important role.

The question is, how will this new system take shape? Populism and protectionism will end European integration, Italy is an example of this, for many years Italy participated in sanctions against Russia, and at the moment of truth, it has been Russia who has shaken hands while the European Union has given the back. Nothing will ever be like before, and the current situation seems like the deadly thrust of the United States that with its action on the problem as a world leader has become the harakiri of the moment.

What remains to be done while politicians deal with this dilemma is to help the most vulnerable groups and especially the elderly, low-income sectors, and the poorest. The more inequality a daddy, the more these vulnerable groups will bear the weight of the economic impact of the pandemic and the fewer resources we will have to combat it. In a hyperconnected world, there can be no global health, climate, economic, or financial security without the world's largest economies working together. How we get out of this crisis will determine our ability to face the next, most likely we will end up in a world in which the United States is no longer the benchmark, in the current case it seems that the pop culture of cinematography has failed as recurring health ideas are implemented by Chinese, Russians, and Cubans. And those countries seem to be implementing new economic ideas that can jeopardize the dollar.
