The candidate may also become part of the organizing committees of the ESI academic conference or forum. During this part, the candidate visits the Host University and will organize in-person meetings with the research advisor and the working group. If more candidates are working on the same or similar topic at the same Host University, they may decide to organize a workshop/roundtable. In agreement with the research advisor, during the research visit, the candidate may deliver a guest lecture(s) for the students at the Host University.
In the 3 rd part, the candidate is involved in writing the working paper with the research advisor and the joint paper with the working group. The process is followed by discussion in the research group, the program group of experts, and guidance by the research adviser(s). During the last part of the program, the
candidate presents the final version of the paper at online or in- person conference(s) and submits the paper for publication to selected journal(s). The candidate can decide where to submit the paper for publication.
The European Scientific Institute, ESI, is in charge of the full logistics and communication with the applicants and candidates during the program.
The ESI will provide an adequate group of experts in various fields who will not only deliver their lectures for the program`s purposes but will also be available for advice and opinions.

experts. The research adviser monitors the academic activities
of the candidate by providing suggestions regarding the research methods and preparation of the working paper. He or she may also participate in the research activities and be enlisted as a co-author of the academic output of the candidate.
The Host University and the Organizer of the program, taking into consideration the research topic and the availability of the researchers at a given moment, select the research adviser(s) for each candidate.
The Organizer may also suggest to the candidate to cooperate with other research advisers.
A certificate for successful completion of the ESI postdoctoral training “Social Sciences and Humanities in a Post-Crisis Period” will be awarded to the candidate after the completion of all 3 parts of the program.

In the past 13 years, the European Scientific Institute, ESI, has created a wide network of experts from different universities worldwide covering various academic domains. For the purpose of the program, every month, ESI will invite an experienced Professor who will deliver an online lecture on a cutting-edge topic. The program aims to invite scholars who address topical issues from a multi or interdisciplinary perspective. The aim of these lectures is to promote intellectual curiosity about the various ways we can study human societies. Hence, speakers are not expected to directly talk about the topics of any particular candidate, but they should be a source of inspiration and widen one’s intellectual horizons.
ESI research groups are organized on a multidisciplinary basis to bring together Fellows from different disciplines working on a similar range of societal challenges. The groups will meet regularly during the duration of the training. The regular meetings of the groups will consist of presentations of the work in progress and the discussion of more general research issues, such as the reading of key or recent works related to the group’s theme. The ESI working groups are chaired by ESI-affiliated experts in appropriate fields.
Each year, the program hosts one major conference organized at one of the Host Universities. The first two conferences were organized at the University of La Laguna, Spain. The focus of this conference is on virtual or in-person meetings with the other ESI fellows and presentations of the research activities in front of a wider audience.
A compulsory part of the training for every candidate is creating a Working paper. The working paper should be in the format of a scientific article or a book chapter. It should be prepared and ready for submission. This working paper will be posted at one of the Host University repositories or in a preprint repository and ready to be submitted for publication. However, when a candidate is not motivated to make the content public, he/she should contact the organizer of the program explaining the reasons for the exception.
All of the program participants are introduced to the ESI Code of Conduct and are familiar with its content. The Code of Conduct applies to all people involved in the ESI Postdoctoral Program including Postdoctoral Candidates, research advisors, WG members, WG chairs, and program directors. The ESI Code of Conduct is available >>> here.
The candidate will be attached to one of the Host University Departments. Depending on the accepted topic and the availability of the academic staff, the Host University will suggest one or more researchers who will work closely with the candidate in the course of the program.
The candidate will complete a research visit at one of the Host Universities within a period of 10 days. The research visit will be organized in line with the COVID-19 protocols.
Upon mutual agreement, the candidate may be offered to deliver lectures for the students at the Host institution. However, the Host Institution is not obliged to make any payments to the candidate for his/her academic activities.
The Candidates affiliated with the University of La Laguna, Spain will have an opportunity to apply for a small research grant that will cover their travel and accommodation costs during the research visit.
The Candidates affiliated with the University of Catania will be offered accommodation at special rates at the University premises (Approx: 180 EUR for 14 days).

The role of the state as a main actor in the international relations continues from the antique to the modern times. Despite some new trends imposed by globalization, the sovereign states are keeping the main role in the system. The COVID-19 pandemic has confirmed that the state is still the main actor regardless of the globalization and the numerous international governmental and nongovernmental international organizations. However, the pandemic opened dilemmas and challenges for the diplomatic relations. We can now speak about vaccination diplomacy – a term that has not been known before. All of the states today are struggling in dealing with the pandemic challenges altogether with the traditional diplomatic issues, politics, and economy. The state as a supreme institutional organization had to deal with the pandemic and impose some restrictions that are not always so popular between its own citizens. Additionally, the institutional capacities of a concrete country are not always sufficient and the necessity of international organizations and leadership is visible. This working group will discuss these issues and a topic for joint research will be selected.
