This special issue is the sequelto the issue on COVID-19 policies published in European Policy Analysis in fall 2020, which focused on the European countries' early responses to the pandemic. The collection aims to go beyond the "honeymoon" phase of the outbreak, that is, the first wave. The selected cases-Sweden, Greece and Cyprus, Germany, Turkey, Hungary, and the Eurozone-provide a variety of national features in terms of political systems, institutional structures, and policy styles. The featured articles adopt different theoretical perspectives and are authored by scholars from a variety of disciplines, who pursue both interpretative and explanatory goals by focusing on policy adoption, policy perception, and learning opportunities, but also on local pandemic management and policy outcomes. A fil rouge unites the featured contributions: they all show the importance of analyzing change over sufficiently long timeframes, to capture the complexity of existing trends.
本期特刊是2020年秋季《欧洲政策分析》上发表的关于新冠疫情政策那一期的续篇，上一期聚焦于欧洲国家对疫情的早期应对。本论文集旨在超越疫情爆发的“蜜月”阶段，即第一波疫情。所选案例——瑞典、希腊和塞浦路斯、德国、土耳其、匈牙利以及欧元区——在政治制度、体制结构和政策风格方面呈现出各种国家特色。专题文章采用了不同的理论视角，作者来自多个学科，他们通过关注政策采纳、政策认知和学习机会，以及地方疫情管理和政策成果来追求解释性和说明性目标。一条主线将这些专题贡献联系在一起：它们都表明了在足够长的时间范围内分析变化以把握现有趋势复杂性的重要性。
