For the world and the region, where the coronavirus pandemic has visited with so much negativity in 2020, speculation has it that “it’s the worst of the worst.”
This global pandemic, which has deeply affected our lives with its multifaceted effects, has already begun to question and destroy many customaries and acceptances in our minds. Although there have been devastating global outbreaks in the past, where human losses have reached exceptional numbers, the outreach of media and advancement in information technology has created extraordinary effects in human and social psychology.
If we consider the exaggerated, biased and inaccurate information that bombard our media outlets, we can and should expect it to bring about permanent changes in our worldview, like the effect ocean waves create every time they hit the ocean shore.
This global atmosphere of uncertainty and fear is essentially a precursor sign that nothing will ever be the same again.…
• Let's think! What was on our individual agenda before the coronavirus pandemic? What was on the agenda of our country and counties of our region? So what was on the agenda of countries with strong economic and global military influence?
• Let`s think! What agendas did we have before the coronavirus pandemic? What was on the agenda of our countries and our counties? What was the agenda of the economic superpowers with global military influence?
Undoubtedly, countries had different agendas and goals apart from the havoc threatening global social order and societal governance today.
Regardless of the widespread effect the virus has caused; it is not possible to surmise that all these agendas have suddenly changed.
