Sociology of COVID-19 - a review of studies

Pandemija COVID-19 dovela je do brojnih izazova za društvo i okoliš. Od samih početka poljoprivredne proizvodnje ljudi utječu na prirodu, a ljudski utjecaj na okoliš je iz dana u dan sve veći. Stoga sociolozi nastoje istražiti ekološku problematiku i odnos između društva i okoliša. U ovim teškim trenutcima nastoje se donijeti napredni koraci prema održivosti koji su potrebni u borbi protiv ove krize i za boljitak društva u cjelini. Cilj ovog rada je prije svega naglasiti izazov za sociologiju i pojedine sociološke discipline za rasprave i istraživanja o utjecaju pojave pandemije COVID-19 na društvo. Pregledana su relevantna objavljena istraživanja u domaćoj i inozemnoj znanstvenoj periodici i forumima o ovom problemu. Analizirani su odabrani objavljeni radovi i rasprave kojima je ključni izazov pojava tzv. “korona krize“ u globalnom svijetu.Pandemic COVID-19 has led to a number of challenges for society and the environment. From the very beginnings of agricultural production, people have been influencing nature and human impact on the environment is increasing day by day.

In these difficult times, efforts are being made to introduce the advanced steps towards sustainability that are needed to combat this corona crisis for the preservation of the environment and the betterment of society as a whole. The aim of this paper is primarily to highlight the challenge for sociology and individual sociological disciplines for discussions and research on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on society. Relevant published research in domestic and foreign scientific journalism and forums on this problem was reviewed. Selected published papers and discussions were analyzed, the key challenge of which is the appearance of the so-called the “corona crisis” in the global world
