Abstract
This edited volume on the socioeconomic dynamics of the COVID-19 crisis covers a wide spectrum of topics, such as reallocation of economic resources, financial markets, government policy response to COVID-19 crisis, stock market return, social relief packages, spread of the disease in polluted cities, public health strategies and biopolitics, donation efficiencies, global hegemony, psychological perspectives, mental health outcomes, cultural challenges, and organization and management research in the post-COVID-19 era, as well as entrepreneurial universities, entrepreneurial frugality, and the international entrepreneurship future. Through each chapter, the authors, who are experts in this area of study, have tried to unfold an emerging aspect in the COVID-19 crisis which could benefit not only academic readers but also institutional, economic, social, and developmental policymakers, as well as health managers and practitioners on the ground.
