The battle against the Covid-19 pandemic has spurred a great challenge among the global community, thus becoming a catalyst in the de-globalising process worldwide. While there have been contested opinions on whether we are now in the temporary phase of de-globalisation, what is clear is that the pandemic adds momentum to the trend. Now that the world has entered the post-Covid-19 phase, is the discourse of de-globalisation still relevant? \u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eSince the emergence of this pandemic, Malaysia has been facing not only a change of government but also a rapid decline in its economy, a rise in unemployment and living costs, with the human rights situation deteriorating as the State of Emergency was imposed. All of these add up to a shift toward de-globalisation. Chapters in this book, therefore, engage with this issue from different perspectives, such as conventional warfare, bio-constitutional implications to the right to health, labour, migrants and refugees, digital education, indigenous people and so forth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKhoo Ying Hooi\u003c\/b\u003e is an associate professor at Universiti Malaya.
