Abstract

The paper examines the complex, multidisciplinary and multidimensional scope of the coronavirus pandemic, focusing on its intertwined implications for international, supranational and domestic laws. The global reach of the phenomenon has highlighted limits and structural gaps at all levels of government in human society, raising questions to which rulers will have to give precise answers.
