This edited volume delves into the profound psychosocial transformations that unfolded during the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent lockdowns, while also envisioning the pathways towards a more equitable society as we navigate the process of reopening. By integrating psychoanalysis, sociology, cultural studies, and psychology, the book explores three central themes: personal experiences of the lockdown, the emergence of new power dynamics and desires shaped by the pandemic, and global concerns related to the pandemic. Within these broader areas, the chapters delve into a range of critical themes, including the utilization of space during lockdown, the profound impact of death, loss, and domestic violence, the intersection of race and the pandemic, the role of technology, media, and viral media in shaping public discourse, the challenges of chronic illness during these times, the importance of handwashing and COVID-19 prevention, and the emergence of conspiracy theories.
The contents of this volume are brought together by a collective of academics and practitioners who share a common vision of social justice and an active pedagogy. The chapters combine experiential writing with cutting-edge, theoretically informed interdisciplinary debates, showcasing the rich diversity of psychosocial studies. Drawing upon psychoanalytic theories, critical psychologies, critical theories, critical race theories, process philosophies, affect theories, and critical pedagogy, the book advances and demonstrates the productive interplay between these diverse disciplines.
This edited volume will appeal to scholars across the social sciences, offering valuable insights into the complex psychosocial dynamics that emerged during the pandemic and providing a roadmap for building a more just and inclusive society as we move forward.
