Corona as an Event in International Relations:Defects in Nation-State Function in the Confrontation of the New-found Challenges
In recent months, the spread of Coronavirus encountered us with a contretemps situation. An event occurred in the guise of a virus that was beyond modern life imagination. Due to a virus, the defects and inadequacies of the mechanisms that govern human societies have once again found the opportunity to outbreak. What seems impossible in coordinates of the history of present of international relations, was realized in the disguise of a contretemps event. In these circumstances, nation-states, in confrontation with new-found events like Coronavirus, entangled in some kind of distress, insolvency, and lack of preparation. Considering these circumstances, we would face different questions; what are the roots of the insolvency of nation-states in the confrontation of these new-found challenges? What are the consequences of handling the contretemps events such as Coronavirus in a traditional method based on survival and security of state? In this regard, we argue that the nature of new-found challenges like Coronavirus is as if the nation-state and the international order based on it, has birth defects in face of these kinds of events; On the other hand, it seems that the learning process and adaptation of nation-states has been frozen decades ago. In this paper, The way of information analysis is the explanatory method of research.
