Ph.D. Program in Global History and Governance
Five 4-year doctoral scholarships available at the Scuola Superiore
Meridionale, Napoli (Italy), a.y. 2025-2026
The
Scuola Superiore Meridionale (SSM)
in Naples, in partnership with the Università di Napoli Federico II, invites
applications for five fully funded scholarships in the PhD program in Global
History and Governance for the academic year 2025-2026.
The Program: The PhD in Global History and
Governance program
consists of an advanced course of study and research at the end of which the
student defends a dissertation based on original and independent scientific
work. The course offers an educational program based on a multidisciplinary
approach centered on history and law, but it is open to contributions from
other disciplines.
The
Ph.D. program in Global History and Governance is aimed at highly motivated
students with a solid personal background and multiple language skills.
The
program focuses on the comparisons, connections, and processes of globalization
that have characterized different areas of the planet between the 16th and 20th
centuries. It does so by concentrating on the relational dimension of
historical processes, legal regimes, and the organization of power; on the
interconnections between economic, political, legal, cultural, and social
factors; and on the circulation, exchange, and interconnection of ideas,
persons, institutions, legal cultures, political models, concepts, rights, and
goods on a global scale.
Program coordinator: Prof. Daniela Luigia
Caglioti
Funding amount: Annual stipend of € 19,000.00;
50% increase of the scholarship for research abroad for up to 12 months; up to
