FAIRNESS, INEQUALITY AND PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION IN A TIME OF PANDEMIC
FAIRNESS, INEQUALITY AND PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION IN A TIME OF PANDEMIC

Summary/Abstract: One important consequence of the great Covid pandemic has been a growing concern about the question of fairness in modern society. Such concerns have grown as it has become increasingly evident that our economic and governmental systems have worked in such a fashion as to leave large numbers of individuals far behind others when it comes to having the resources necessary to defend oneself, and one's family, against the ravages of the pandemic. Clearly, if this situation is to be addressed, one critical aspect of any solution is to recognize both the important role and the responsibility of government in addressing such matters. No other institution of society is either so central to, or has the potential capacity required for, effectively addressing the growing economic and resource inequalities that are increasingly characterizing virtually every country of the world.
