Abstract

Der Beitrag analysiert räumliche Hierarchien und geopolitische Konfliktdynamiken bei der Bekämpfung der COVID-19-Pandemie aus der Perspektive des Weltsystemansatzes. Datensätze zeigen, dass sich das Modell aus Zentrum, Semiperipherie und Peripherie bei der Impfstoffverteilung und -produktion reproduziert. Die asymmetrische Verteilung von Ressourcen zur Bekämpfung der COVID-19-Krise übersetzt sich in hierarchisch strukturierte Impfstoffwelten, die sich zu Schauplätzen geopolitischer Konflikte um Impfstoffproduktion und -distribution entwickelt haben, auf denen insbesondere amerikanische, europäische und chinesische Herstellerfirmen um Einflusssphären und Absatzmärkte konkurrieren.
