摘要

为应对新冠肺炎疫情,纳伦德拉·莫迪(Narendra Modi)领导的印度政府仅提前4小时就实施了严格的封锁。它没有注意到在印度城市临时工作的数百万移民。由于封锁,大多数人失去了生计,数百万人试图返回家乡。同时,农村经济也面临封锁带来的困难。莫迪政府向因应对新冠肺炎而受到不利影响的大量贫困人口提供的救济有限,而且落实得很差。这一事件表明,印度民主对劳动人民的需要缺乏反应,发展是失败的。然而,莫迪特有的威权民粹主义运作得如此之好,以至于一个几乎没有同情心的政府仍然得到了民众的大力支持。

"Responding to an Epidemic Requires a Compassionate State": How Has the Indian State Been Doing in the Time of COVID-19?

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Indian government, led by Narendra Modi, imposed a stringent lockdown with only four hours notice. It paid no attention to the millions of migrants who work on a temporary basis in Indian cities. Most lost their livelihoods as a result of the lockdown, and millions sought to return to their native villages. At the same time, the rural economy confronted its own difficulties caused by the lockdown. The relief that the Modi government offered to the large numbers of poor people who had been adversely affected by its response to COVID-19 was limited and poorly delivered. The episode showed the lack of responsiveness of Indian democracy to the needs of working people and the failures of development. Yet Modi's particular brand of authoritarian populism worked so well that a government displaying very little compassion retained strong popular support.
