Abstract
Due to the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, states and international organizations must implement a variety of economic and financial practices to combat the pandemic and its adverse effects on the economies. These public policies require the most efficient use of resources under a serious resource scarcity. Nations must re-imagine the ways how they cooperate as they fight to COVID-19. Global public bads are public goods with costs that extend across countries, across rich and poor population groups, and even across generations. We can consider the COVID-19 pandemic as a global public bad. This chapter looks at definitions and concepts of GPGs and global public bads, and then, the public policies implemented within the scope of COVID-19 will be evaluated within this framework.
