Resumen

Cette essai examine certaines des principales pandémies de l’histoire humaine et leurs effets sociologiques, économiques et politiques. Dans quelle mesure les pandémies peuvent-elles transformer notre société? Comment les pandémies de l’histoire sont-elles liées aux pandémies courantes? La peste d’Athènes a causé une déception envers les dieux grecs car les Athéniens ont estimé qu’ils ne recevaient pas suffisamment de soutien d’Apollon. La peste de Justinien a provoqué des révoltes dans tout l’empire et a conduit à la fin de l’Antiquité classique. La ‘peste noire’ a considérablement changé la vision future des Européens car la mort était omniprésente. Bien que le nombre de morts de choléra ait été limité, cette pandémie a déclenché la stigmatisation, la violence et le racisme envers les Asiatiques, en particulier les Indiens. Le conquéreur espagnol Hernán Cortés n’aurait jamais pu coloniser la civilisation aztèque sans l’épidémie de variole. Après un épisode d’absurdisme et de dadaïsme, la grippe espagnole a apporté les années folles avec une généralisation de la radio, des salles de danse, du jazz, de la Harlem Renaissance, des scènes gays et lesbiennes, et du suffrage féminin. La pandémie de coronavirus montre que la société se numérise à la vitesse de la lumière dans le monde des arts. Cet essai montre également que notre économie est une économie à somme positive contrairement à l’économie à somme nulle à l’époque de la peste noire et avant. Il existe également un équilibre délicat qui doit être maintenu entre la maîtrise de la pandémie et le respect des principes démocratiques. L’essai conclut que chaque pandémie a une nature idiosyncratique et qu’une pandémie peut avoir des effets divers dans différentes sociétés ou régions du monde.
