The social and economic effects are likely to be felt for years to come. This situation calls for an examination of how people react to policy measures that have been introduced, and what actions they take on their own initiative over and above the official advice by governments. What motivates citizens to follow, adapt to, or ignore, the advice of public authorities? What do they do to protect themselves, and to support others \u2013 and what roles do technologies play in this? What, or who, do people trust in these uncertain times? What do people need to feel safe at the time of crisis?<\/p>\n<p>The project examines these important questions in different European countries, including Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. We use a multi-sited qualitative research design involving in-depth open-ended interviews.<\/p>\n<p>This qualitative longitudinal study design involving \u2018soft comparisons\u2019 between countries and over a period of about six months allows us not only to identify differences and similarities in <i>how<\/i> people responded to the pandemic and the ensuing policy measures, but also why. These findings are expected to generate valuable evidence for policies for pandemic preparedness, prevention and containment in the countries under study, and beyond.<\/p>\n<p><b>TEAM<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Study Lead: <\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Barbara Prainsack, and Katharina Kieslich, <a href=\"https:\/\/politikwissenschaft.univie.ac.at\/en\/research\/main-areas-of-research\/centre-for-the-study-of-contemporary-solidarity-cescos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Centre for the Study of Contemporary Solidarity<\/a>, Department of Political Science, University of Vienna, Austria | [contact: <a href=\"mailto:barbara.prainsack@univie.ac.at\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">barbara.prainsack@univie.ac.at<\/a>]\n<p><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/politikwissenschaft.univie.ac.at\/forschung\/forschungsschwerpunkte\/cescos-zeitgenoessische-solidaritaetsstudien\/solidarity-in-times-of-a-pandemic-what-do-people-do-and-why\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Link to the project<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weiters hier ein Veranstaltungshinweis: Wiener Vorlesungen<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Gesellschaft im Umbruch: Was macht die Pandemie mit uns?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Erste Ergebnisse aus den Sozialwissenschaften<\/p>\n<p><strong>Donnerstag<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>23.
