Political Ethics & Pandemic
Journal Title: Annals of Bioethics & Clinical Applications - Year 2020, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
A real and functional relationship is established between political behavior and situations of social disaster such as the current pandemic that is shaking the world, with extreme variations in attitude that fluctuate between the cynicism of deceit, violence and the circumstantial advantage in attacking the adversary, up to forms of truly ethical and rational conduct to control the situation. Contradictory forces are then unleashed that disorient the citizenship, provoking various reactions that further complicate the context, with the appearance of new and collateral problems with multiple and difficult solutions, not always well faced by those who govern and have the power to decide.
