To give you guidance your essay should answer the following questions:

  2. How are the impacts of the coronavirus epidemic socially and spatially differentiated? In other words, who, if anyone, is disproportionately impacted and why?
  3. How do these differential impacts reflect the uneven power relations that determine the distribution of risks, harms and benefits in the Anthropocene?
