Abstract
This article thoroughly examines the connection between political orientation and economic policies by analyzing the decision-making process and economic consequences of right-wing countries like the United States and left-wing countries such as Norway during the COVID-19 pandemic. Countries with a strong left-wing inclination might focus more on developing the public sector and social welfare, and their economic development mode tends to be closer to the welfare state model. In contrast, countries with a stronger right-wing tendency stress the function of free markets and private enterprises, and their economic development models are more similar to the free-market economy model. Nevertheless, international cooperation must be strengthened. Both left-wing and right-wing countries should discard ideological distinctions and jointly address the impact of the pandemic on the global economy to facilitate its recovery. Also, during the epidemic, vulnerable groups had been the most severely affected. The government should adopt measures to safeguard their basic livelihoods and rights, and prevent the wealth gap from further expanding. Additionally, it is essential to increase investment in education and training to enhance the skill level of workers and provide human resource support for the long-term economic development.
