ABSTRACT

Latin America has suffered disproportionately during the COVID-19 pandemic. The human impact has been chaotically and catastrophically evident across the three countries we examine here: Colombia, Chile, and México. Those nations were already creaking under the effect of generations of neoliberal ideology: their intellectual, political, and ruling-class fractions had long-embraced its core project of redistributing income upwards and privatizing public goods, notably healthcare. In response to that raging inequality, uprisings had occurred through new citizen movements in 2019. They intensified in 2020 and 2021, as citizenship was enacted in powerful ways.

摘要

在 COVID-19 大流行期间，拉丁美洲遭受了不成比例的影响。在我们在这里研究的三个国家：哥伦比亚、智利和墨西哥，人类的影响是混乱而灾难性的。这些国家已经在几代新自由主义意识形态的影响下摇摇欲坠：他们的知识分子、政治和统治阶级部分长期以来一直在接受其核心项目，即向上重新分配收入和将公共产品私有化，尤其是医疗保健。为应对这种严重的不平等，2019 年通过新的公民运动发生了起义。随着公民权以强有力的方式颁布，起义在 2020 年和 2021 年愈演愈烈。
