Abstract

Panama has stood out for its accelerated growth between 2004 and 2018, which has had as a consequence that in 2017 it will become part of the high-income countries, but this economic success has not been able to reverse or correct the high rates of inequality. With the outbreak of the pandemic, the consequences of pre-existing structural inequalities have become visible. Among the most prominent expressions of inequity, we can highlight social duality. This duality materializes in public opinion in a great social fracture with two country models and very divergent opinions on the role of the public and the measures to be adopted to face the pandemic.

Keywords:

inequality, social duality, public opinion
