Abstract

Las crisis, en muchos casos, impulsan cambios que marcan la evolución de las sociedades humanas. Esto ha aplicado en las relaciones sociedad-naturaleza, a través de un vínculo de realimentación donde las crisis determinan estas relaciones y viceversa. En este ensayo se reflexiona sobre algunas posibles avenidas de acción que se pueden tomar hacia sociedades más resilientes y sostenibles, motivadas por la pandemia del COVID-19. Además, se examina brevemente esa relación entre enfermedades infecciosas y acciones humanas sobre el ambiente, así como algunas iniciativas que se promueven actualmente para engendrar cambios sociales hacia la sostenibilidad a raíz de la crisis por la pandemia.

In many instances, crisis drive changes that mark societal evolution. This has applied to nature-society relationships by the analysis whereby crises determine this type of relationships and vice-versa. This essay examines some possible avenues of action, motivated by the COVID-19 pandemic, towards more resilient and sustainable societies. Furthermore, it briefly examines the relationship between infectious diseases and human environmental actions, as well as some initiatives that are being promoted to engender social changes towards sustainability.
