Abstract
CHERKAOUI, Mohammed. The shifting geopolitics of coronavirus and the demise of Neoliberalism. Rev.econ.inst. [online]. 2021, vol.23, n.44, pp.103-141. Epub Apr 28, 2021. ISSN 0124-5996. https://doi.org/10.18601/01245996.v23n44.06.
This paper examines the context of the spread of the new coronavirus, the correlation with the instability of world financial markets and the fall in oil prices, and concerns about the future of neorealist capitalism. The first part addresses several questions: was the pandemic caused by nature or by man? Can scientific research help to separate the truth from the conspiracy theses? The second part suggests that the coronavirus has imposed a de facto trickle-down economy on Reagan's trickledown economy, and shows the economic disruptions it has caused in developed and deve-loping countries. It is concluded that a tiny virus is forcing the dominant neoliberal system to review reality by force.
