    Summary:

    The Covid-19 pandemic has revealed that governments matter again, that competent leadership is the difference between living and dying.

Are Western governments healthy and strong enough to keep their citizens safe from another virulent virus, and protect their economies from collapse? Is global leadership passing from the United States to Asia, and particularly China?

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has revealed that governments matter again, that competent leadership is the difference between living and dying. A few governments proved adept at handling the crisis while many others failed. Are Western governments healthy and strong enough to keep their citizens safe from another virulent virus, and protect their economies from collapse? Is global leadership passing from the United States to Asia, and particularly China?
