Title Smart Governance and COVID-19 Control in Wuhan, China
Year 2021
Published
Abstract In dealing with the global COVID-19 pandemic, China has achieved reasonable success in governing COVID-19 within two months with the help of technologies. This study specifically focuses on how these massive technologies have been implemented to facilitate the smart governance of COVID-19 in Wuhan, China. By discursively analyzing existing data from multiple sources, the results obtained in this chapter show that the real 'smartness' of the smart governance of COVID-19 in Wuhan is the innovative use of technologies to develop different types of governance approaches to control COVID-19 in an effective and targeted way. As the pandemic continues to evolve worldwide, lessons learned from Wuhan, China can be beneficial to other countries in different institutional contexts to build their own, context-specific governance for controlling the pandemic.
