Moral Panics and Social Control in the COVID-19 Pandemic presents a series of case studies which focus on particular social processes and interactions during the COVID-19 pandemic, applying the tools offered by classical studies on moral panic and moral panic theory to illuminate both political and popular responses.Each case study explores the emergence, development, and impact of forms of moral panic in response to the coronavirus outbreak. In doing so, each chapter addresses the intersectional impact of moral panics upon vulnerable and/or stigmatized groups and outlines how moral panics have informed policies, interventions, and social mechanisms introduced by governments. Incorporating case studies from across the globe and drawing upon approaches from different disciplines, the chapters in this volume offer a wide-ranging and multi-faceted analysis of the varying responses to the coronavirus outbreak.The book highlights aspects of interest for students and scholars in the social sciences, educators, policymakers, and practitioners with an interest in moral panics, responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, and mechanisms of social control.

Folk Devils and Moral Panics in the COVID-19 Pandemic analyses the phenomena of moral panics surrounding so-called folk devils in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.In this volume, internationally recognised moral panic scholars from disciplines including sociology, media studies, criminology, and cultural studies examine case studies of moral panics related to the COVID-19 pandemic. These analyses consider the different social, political, economic, organisational, and cultural contexts within which such moral panics emerged and assess how the concept of moral panic can be deployed to offer novel insights into sociocultural responses to the outbreak. By utilising both classical approaches to moral panic analysis and more recent trends, chapters discuss the utility of the concept of moral panic that is, for the first time, applied to a global-scale event like the COVID-19 pandemic.This volume will be of interest to students and scholars in the social sciences with an interest in moral panics, responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the media and popular culture.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.
