摘要

摘要新冠肺炎疫情已从一个紧迫的健康问题转变为一个重大的安全威胁，需要采取超出正常政策范围的紧急措施。许多非洲国家政府利用这场疫情作为国家和社会面临的致命威胁，为限制人民自由的前所未有的预防措施辩护。因此，本研究的目的是分析干预主义国家的当前趋势及其中长期的社会政治影响。本研究采用定性方法和文献综述，研究了新冠肺炎证券化对非洲社会的影响。关键发现表明，非洲对疫情的大多数反应都是非传统证券化问题。因此，这些发现与进一步研究证券化背景下的新威胁和风险有关。

The securitisation of COVID-19 in Africa: Socio-economic and political implications

ABSTRACT The outbreak of COVID-19 has shifted from an urgent health issue to a major security threat requiring emergency measures that go beyond normal policies. Many African governments have exploited this pandemic as a deadly threat facing both the state and society to justify unprecedented precautionary measures that restrict people’s freedoms. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyse the current trend of the interventionist state and its socio-political implications in the medium and long term. Using a qualitative approach and literature review, this study examined the impact of securitisation of COVID-19 on African societies. The key findings reveal that most of the African responses to the pandemic were cases of non-traditional securitisation issues. Therefore, such findings are relevant for further studies to explore new threats and risks in the context of securitisation.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
