Abstract
BARBA SOLANO, Carlos. Covid-19 in Latin America and Mexico: Welfare gaps. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2023, vol.85, n.spe, pp.11-40. Epub Feb 24, 2023. ISSN 2594-0651. https://doi.org/10.22201/iis.01882503p.2023.0.60450.
This article empirically addresses structural welfare gaps revealed by the Covid-19 epidemic in four Latin American countries: Argentina, Costa Rica, Mexico, and Panama. To do this, it examines various areas: healthcare, the economy, employment, social protection, particularly in the field of affiliation to pension systems, the greater or lesser incidence of the crisis in the growth of poverty and extreme poverty and the ability of each state to respond to that rise, the worsening of gender inequalities, and the emergence of gaps that magnify educational inequalities.
