Resumen
CHAVARRIA CHINCHILLA, Stuart Daniel. COVID-19: State, Society (Industrial) of risk and management of threats and lacks from March 6 to April 30, 2020 in Costa Rica. Rev. Rup. [online]. 2022, vol.12, n.1, pp.19-47. ISSN 2215-2989. http://dx.doi.org/10.22458/rr.v12i1.3989.
This article is an interpretive case study that attempts to evaluate the theory of risk society based on the state management of the COVID-19 pandemic. For this, it focuses on Costa Rica as a unit of analysis as it seeks to prove that, contrary to what the theory points out, material deficiencies and the level of development alone do not explain the growth and prosperity of risks. On the other hand, for the present work it is argued that if one seeks to understand both the growth and the prosperity of risks, it is necessary to examine what are the state actions to manage said risks.
