Schedule for \u201cPublic Policy, Opinions, Behavior, and Health Outcomes during the COVID Pandemic\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overview:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

No political observer could have predicted the introduction of effective travel restrictions among Schengen countries, the implementation of radical policy measures such as the lockdown, the emergence of intensified political conflict on these policy measures often, but not always, aligned with preexisting social, economic, and political cleavages, and an astonishing decline in international cooperation. At the microlevel, the political stance of individuals has been dominated by the health issues associated with Covid-19 and increased uncertainties about the electoral fate of incumbent and opposition parties alike. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The papers included in the workshop will cover all aspects of the politics and policies of the Covid-19 pandemic from an interdisciplinary social science perspective. The workshop focuses on Covid-19 related government policies and associated health outcomes across and within countries, and the multiple ways public opinion and behavior have interacted with these factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
