Este artículo analiza los problemas derivados de la pandemia global del Covid-19. Parte por ubicar un antecedente cercano en China en el año 2003. El virus del tipo SARS-COV que apareció en la provincia de Guangdong y se propagó hacia Pekín y otras ciudades, y que debió encender las alarmas en todo el mundo. Hace referencia a la fractura de los soportes de la llamada modernidad provocada por la rápida expansión de esta pandemia, y la impotencia de las grandes naciones para combatirla y evitar sus devastadores efectos. Se visibilizan las consecuencias que tendrá en el corto, mediano y largo plazo en los campos de la económica, de lo social y de la geopolítica mundial, y para América Latina, de acuerdo a los análisis y las proyecciones preliminares hechas por la CEPAL en su más reciente estudio sobre los impactos de la pandemia del Covid-19. Se hace un análisis crítico sobre cómo esta pandemia está cambiando radicalmente la vida de los seres humanos en la sociedad. Llegando a concluir que la guerra comercial que sobrevendrá al final de la pandemia, es una nueva reconfiguración global del capitalismo, con los mismos ganadores y perdedores de todo esto, pues a pesar de esta tragedia, el capitalismo continuará siendo salvaje, pues creemos que aún no llegará a su fin. Palabras clave: Pandemia Covid-19; capitalismo salvaje; arrogancia; modernidad Covid-19: Modernity and fatal arrogance Abstract This article analyzes the problems derived from the global pandemic of Covid-19. It starts by locating a close antecedent in China in 2003, the SARS-COV type virus that appeared in Guangdong province and spread to Beijing and other cities, and that should have set off alarms around the world. It refers to the fracturing of the supports of the so-called modernity caused by the rapid expansion of this pandemic, and the powerlessness of the great nations to fight it and avoid its devastating effects. The consequences that it will have in the short, medium and long term in the fields of economic, social and global geopolitics are visible, and for Latin America as well, according to the preliminary analysis and projections made by ECLAC in its most recent study on the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic. A critical analysis is made of how this pandemic is radically changing the lives of human beings in society, coming to the conclusion that the trade war that will ensue at the end of the pandemic, is a new global reconfiguration of capitalism, with the same winners and losers of all this, because despite this tragedy, capitalism will continue to be savage, as we believe that it will not yet come to an end.
