VERAZA URTUZUASTEGUI, Jorge. Civilizational Crisis Without Crisis of Capitalism and COVID -19. Cuad. Geogr. Rev. Colomb. Geogr. [online]. 2023, vol.32, n.2, pp.262-279.  Epub 29-Fev-2024. ISSN 0121-215X.  https://doi.org/10.15446/rcdg.v32n2.103993.

This article proposes a review of Karl Marx's theory of surplus value to understand the world civilizational crisis occurring at present that exploded in 2020. Fifteen theses are presented together with an explanation of each one, to develop the main thesis that the present crisis is a crisis of overaccumulation of capital, as Karl Marx established in the Law of the Decreasing Tendency of the Rate of Profit. In this way, it is determined that the civilizational crisis stems from normal capitalist development; in this framework the COVID-19 pandemic emerged, which deepened the subjugation of the population and is an expression of this civilizational crisis.

Highlights:

this reflexive article draws on authors as Hegel, Malthus, and Foucault to describe the way in which society was involved in the COVID-19 quarantine catastrophe, which, although extraordinary, is an expression of normal capitalist development and its inherent civilizational crisis.

Palavras-chave : COVID-19; crisis of civilization; population decline; world government; artificial intelligence; economic system.
