This paper analyses some of the trends in global capitalism prior to the pandemic
and some specificities of the latter that are likely to place the global economy at a
crossroads between maintaining the prevailing trend of techno authoritarianism in the
governance of countries and a change in the social order. It describes the arrival of the
pandemic amid increasing technologization and a fragile socioeconomic architecture,
which has been deteriorating since the emergence of neoliberalism in the 1980s
and, especially, since the 2008–2009 financial crisis. The major trends analysed are:
globalization and the rise of China, wage stagnation and the gap between productivity
and wages, along with the explosion in the rate of profit, in addition to (financial and
non-financial) corporate profits and the convergence of artificial intelligence and
automation. It also outlines a number of lessons to be learned from the pandemic. |
