摘要

背景:2019冠状病毒病的关键时刻为深入了解道德恐慌与新出现的传染病叙事之间的关系提供了机会。分析:本文以Penelope Ironstone 2020年关于COVID-19的关键词文章为出发点,批判性地反思了在叙述和定义COVID-19引发的危机中浓缩的矛盾的过程中,进步的社会利益无法占据优势的方式。结论和影响:本文扩展了Ironstone的批评,解释了COVID-19关键词是如何通过一种主流的大流行叙事来表达的,这种叙事通过个性化的应对策略来构建对危机的首选反应,承诺相对安全的感染,这种叙事既抑制了道德恐慌,也煽动了道德恐慌。

Suppressing the Crisis: Moral Panics, Emerging Infectious Diseases, and the COVID-19 Conjuncture
Background: The conjunctural moment of COVID-19 provides a window of opportunity to glean insights into the relationship between moral panics and emerging infectious disease narratives. Analysis: Using Penelope Ironstone’s 2020 essay on COVID-19 in keywords as a starting point, this article critically reflects on the ways that progressive social interests were unable to gain an upper hand in the process of narrating and defining the contradictions that were condensed in the crisis spurred by COVID-19. Conclusions and implications: The article extends Ironstone’s critique by explaining how COVID-19 keywords were expressed through a dominant pandemic narrative that discouraged as much as it incited moral panic by framing the preferred response to the crisis in terms of individualized coping strategies promising relative security from infection.
