The Covid-19 pandemic is shaking fundamental assumptions about the human life course in societies around the world. Settersten et al apply a life course perspective to understanding the pandemic’s effects on individuals, families, and populations; exploring the implications on life transitions and trajectories; considering the life course implications of being infected by the Covid-19 virus or attached to someone who has; and assessing the pandemic’s social, economic, cultural, and psychological consequences.
