| Summary/Abstract |
The COVID-19 pandemic has posed unprecedented challenges to public health and economic development around the world. The year 2020 was a remarkably difficult one, with lockdowns, travel restrictions, virtual online schooling, and economic disruptions. The theme of the 2021 annual meeting of the Chinese Economist Society (CES), hosted (virtually) by Huazhong University of Science and Technology in Wuhan, China, was “Public Policy and Economic Behavior: China and the World amidst a Global Pandemic”. Papers in this special issue were selected from among 38 submissions in response to an open Call for Papers and were all subjected to a double-blind review process.
