COVID-19

Undoubtedly, the type of world we lived in during the pre-COVID-19 era would not hang on for long. During the last six months, indications of structural changes in the global power hierarchy can be perceived. The world may gradually inch towards a new world order with a new set of power equations and structural adjustments. Though there is no unanimity on the ushering of new world order post-pandemic, the upshot of the COVID-19 would certainly be consequential for the current world order which at first has started to reshape and will fully transform to its new avatar at once. When will it fully usher, and what would be the exact contours of the post-COVID-19 world order, is too early to conclude. But one must ponder if such a systemic alteration is to occur, some fracture in the global governance structure would too emerge. Has any irreparable fracture among the current global ruling elites emerged? Will the wrangling centered around the pandemic will prompt any fresh alignments and counter-alignments culminating in a new polarity at the global level?
