Abstract
This pandemic represented (a dividing line) based on a time dimension as a separating point between before and after, and a material dimension related to social, economic and political implications, and a symbolic dimension related to the dismantling of psychological and symbolic buildings, patterns, values, policies, and the emergence or rise of new structures, on the social level The falsity of the sayings of justice and solidarity adopted by some ruling systems and ideologies.There are many inhumane practices that revealed the depth of the value, social and cooperative problem that humanity is experiencing, but on the other hand they generate awareness that salvation is no longer an individual and subjective bet, and that is why the (social ego) overrides the (personal ego). And every individual became aware that he would not only survive by himself, as long as he was in a collective global and cosmic danger, for his salvation was linked to the salvation of those with whom he shared the existence. On the economic level, many proposals have emerged about (the economy of life, the economy of knowledge and technology, altruism, the fragility of the foundations of economic globalization, and the new third world Europe). Politically speaking, we can talk about intellectual developments about (populism, globalization, the growth of right-wing currents, and the decline of neoliberalism, New communism, the role of the state, freedom, digital dictatorship).
