The COVID pandemic has shaken the material and social foundations of the world more than any event in recent history and has highlighted and exacerbated a longstanding crisis of care. While these challenges may be freshly visible to the public, they are not new. Over the last three decades, a growing body of care scholarship has documented the inadequacy of the social organization of care around the world, and the effect of the devaluation of care on workers, families, and communities. In this volume, a diverse group of care scholars bring their expertise to bear on this recent crisis. In doing so, they consider the ways in which the existing social organization of care in different countries around the globe amplified or mitigated the impact of COVID. They also explore the global pandemic's impact on the conditions of care and  its role in exacerbating deeply rooted gender, race, migration, disability, and other forms of inequality.

Recenzii

"The editors of From Crisis to Catastrophe​ are three of the most important scholars of care work in the 21st century. In this book they bring together scholars from many regions across the globe, whose work has the potential to identify key strategies to create a safer, healthier, and more just economy."

“From Crisis to Catastrophe is a very timely book, focusing on two topics that have received great attention recently: care and COVID-19. The editors, scholars specialized in the topic, have gathered a group of outstanding experts from multiple institutions and countries to address this new phenomenon.”

"Even before COVID-19, severe shortages existed in supplies of nurses, home health workers, nurse aides, day care workers, and others able to provide similar care, largely due to inadequate payment and cultural norms belittling the value of what had been considered 'women’s work.' This book explores the ways the pandemic exposed those deficiencies and exacerbated them to the point of collapse, pointing out the especially high burden borne by 'low-skilled' care workers of color, including personal illness and death of caregivers."
