The Covid-19 pandemic has exposed a crisis in political authority within liberal societies, where many individuals defied health regulations, complicating efforts to control the virus. This behavior stems from various factors, including rising conspiracy theories, distrust in governments, and cultural beliefs that prioritize personal freedom over collective responsibility. The book argues for a reevaluation of the balance between individual liberties and collective interests, emphasizing the need for responsible citizenship to prevent future crises and mitigate the impact of inevitable pandemics.
