| Description | This short editorial proposes a specific topic for comprehensive research in COVID-19 in the CEE area, namely the role of politicians and politics during the pandemic. The text includes three short country case studies (Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia), describing different aspects of the politics / political fighting relationship and the COVID-19 pandemic. The experts' arguments suggest that the "motto of the day" should be working together and not fighting each other. However, nothing (almost nothing”) like this is visible in our region – or at least in our three case studies, the only positive aspect from this point of view is the joint call of all parliamentary group leaders for vaccination in Slovenia. By its content, the editorial calls for comprehensive research on the aims of the current antagonistic situation and possible actions. |
