“From mental health and family dynamics to economic inequality and political mobilization, this handbook provides an unprecedented, multidisciplinary examination of China’s COVID-19 experience. Its rigorous documentation of both personal suffering and state overreach makes it essential reading for understanding authoritarian pandemic governance—and preserving a more complete account of this critical period.”Timothy Hildebrandt, Associate Professor, London School of Economics and Political Science Co-editor, The China Quarterly“At a time when collective memory of COVID-19 fades, this comprehensive volume fills a crucial knowledge gap in pandemic scholarship. Through rigorous, interdisciplinary analysis spanning health, social, political, and media dimensions, it creates an authoritative account that critically examines official narratives and preserves essential truths about how ordinary people and the state navigated this unprecedented crisis.”Yanzhong Huang, Professor and Director of Global Health Studies, Seton Hall University Senior Fellow for Global Health, Council on Foreign Relations“Through its comprehensive scope and analytical rigor, this book connects the lived experiences of ordinary Chinese citizens with the broader institutional and political forces that shaped their reality. It is an essential resource for anyone seeking to understand how China, and the world, confronted one of the most transformative public health crises of our time.”Xiaogang Wu, Yufeng Global Professor of Social Science and Professor of Sociology, NYU Shanghai and New York University
