Abstract

Pandemics are a real threat to mankind because the spread of such outbreaks has a wide coverage not limited to only one or two countries but affecting almost all countries in the world. As a threat, a pandemic has indirect implications for social, economic and political conditions both at domestic and international levels. Thus, collective and comprehensive efforts are needed in responding to and preventing the expansion of infections caused by viruses, including Covid-19. Since the outbreak of Covid-19 in March 2020, many countries have tried their best to prevent the spread of the virus in their countries. Nevertheless, only few have succeeded in responding to this pandemic. Then it tends to create new problems, for example the disruption of the social and economic order. The heterogeneous social order has resulted in a lot of premature speculation related to the Covid-19 virus, this causes many people to tend to ignore it. This neglectful attitude itself is a problem within humankind due to the lack of information and knowledge, especially since the characteristics of Covid-19 are a quickly-spread type of flu. The implication for the economic order is the cessation of the flow of production as well as discontinuation of goods and services transfer. It is because the virus spreads through the air, so that the fear of infection is definitely great. In addition, the implementation of policies or regulations that are tentative in nature has caused political turmoil. These three implications can at least illustrate that the Covid-19 pandemic has disrupted the existing order. As a result, governments must work hard to deal with and prevent the spread of the Covid-19 virus. The Faculty of Social and Political Sciences and the Faculty of Economic and Business, Uni- versity of Muhammadiyah Malang held an international conference under the name, the First International Conference on Humanities and Social Sciences (ICHSOS) 2021 on 18-19 June 2021, at Universitas Muhammadiyah Malang, in East Java, Indonesia. The conference was held online due to the pandemic with a keynote lecture from Professor Ravik Karsidi, Minister for Human Devel- opment and Cultural Affairs of Indonesia and five main speakers Dr. Peerasit Kamnuasilpa, Khon Kaen University,Yash Chawla, PhD., Wrocław University of Science andTechnology (WUST), Dr. Khadijah Alavi, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Dr. Vina Salviana Darvina Soedarwo, M.Si., University of Muhammadiyah Malang, Indonesia, and Dr Eko Handayanto, M.M, University of Muhammadiyah Malang. Under the theme entitled “Social and Political Issues on Sustainable Development in the Post Covid-19 Crisis”, the Conference gathered participants from various universities in Indonesia and other countries. The conference accepted 84 articles to be presented. There are 42 articles included in this conference proceedings volume published by CRC Press/Balkema, Taylor & Francis Group. Hopefully the participants of the conference will be able to dissect problems, find solutions and get alternative perspectives in preventing and dealing with the pandemic problems posed by Covid-19.
