Beyond its serious health and economic challenges, COVID-19 pandemic has raised, and continues to raise, a variety of political questions. Great part of the literature has focussed attention on the many emergency and illiberal measures that governments have introduced in order to contain the spread of the virus. This panel aims to complement existing (Foucauldian) literature, by focussing on the concept of responsibility through the prism of citizenship with special attention to everyday practices. To what extent has COVID-19 pandemic challenged (Western) concept of citizenship? Is it still adequate to refer to the liberal and democratic citizen in time of emergency? What is it that make citizens (ir)responsible during a life-threatening pandemic? Is it their ability to conform to governmental rules? Or is it their ability not to lose their critical capacity to challenge, contest and question governmental decisions? On what ground do we judge (ir)responsibility? Are public protests always legitimate instance of (active) citizenship? Or might public protests be read as instances of irresponsibility, especially if carried out under restrictive (immobility) measures? Last but not least, is there a need to (re)educate citizens regarding their response-ability? These are some of the key questions that this panel aims to elicit though a multi-disciplinary perspective — including Political Theory, Political and Social Psychology, Anthropology, Citizenship Studies and Resistance Studies — and a broad geographical scope.
