As our group discussed in Monthly Review, China bears much, but not all,
responsibility for the emergence of COVID-19.
The U.S. and Europe played definitional roles themselves in funding the
deforestation and development that this century led to the emergence of
H1N1 (2009), Ebola Makona, H5N2, H5Nx, and Zika outside China. And many
an influenza and SARS in China proper. Indeed, in opposition to mutual
accusations, many of these outbreaks were joint productions.
As late Giovanni Arrighi and early John Gulick put it, the two centers
of capital, competing brothers, are foundationally integrated, sharing
transnational supply lines, foreign direct investment, interlocking
directorates, and a debt co-dependency during what appears a bout of
common ecological collapse. Even the kind of dirty break in polarities
of accumulation world-systems theory predicts ain't a done deal.
