The COVID-19 crisis requires an integrated effort from governments, institutions, organizations, and communities to attack this crisis. The COVID-19 pandemic has imparted fundamental economic and financial shocks to society on several levels. Even there are now effective vaccines; it is still arguable that how people live and work in the future will change significantly in the aftermath of this modern pandemic. Therefore, there will be significant changes in specific behavior settings (e.g., schools, offices, hospitals) after the COVID-19 pandemic. It seems likely that the nature of work everywhere will be transformed in the aftermath of this global pandemic; for example, online working from home is increasingly adopted by companies wishing to reduce fixed costs and minimize organizational risk. Also, there will be significant changes in the lifestyle and access to basic infrastructures, such as energy and transportation systems. Therefore, governments can promote green forms of energy and transportation in the post-COVID-19 world. This issue can also change the pollution levels in the 2020s. Finally, the COVID-19 pandemic has also shown a significant inequality between developing countries and advanced economies. Decreasing the inequality (including health-access inequality) will also be an important task, especially in the United States and the United Kingdom's free-market economies.
This Research Topic aims to understand potential issues in the post-COVID-19 pandemic. Particularly, we welcome interdisciplinary and empirical studies (panel data studies, survey studies, and time-series analyses) of health economics, which will provide consequences and implications for the post-COVID-19 pandemic era. We also welcome the impact of policy implications of governments and other public institutions on the health sector.
We expect original and unpublished contributions broadly in, but not limited to, the following topics:
• Business and Small Businesses post COVID-19;
• Credit Markets post COVID-19;
• Economic Globalization and Financial Sector post COVID-19;
• Economic Performance and Financial Development post COVID-19;
• Equity Performances post COVID-19;
• Exchange Rate Markets post COVID-19;
• Fiscal Stimulus and Government Spending post COVID-19;
• Government and Private Investments post COVID-19;
• Health Systems and Health Inequality post COVID-19;
• Innovation Dynamics post COVID-19;
• International Cooperation post COVID-19;
• Monetary Policy post COVID-19;
• New Regulations in Financial and Product Markets post COVID-19;
• Structural Transformation post COVID-19
• Tax Policies and Debt Problems post COVID-19.
