Nationalism--Albania Class number: 949.65 Abstract: "Albanian identities:myth and history"- challenges some long-held assumptions regarding significant episodes in Albania’s past, sheds new light on aspects of Albanian life that have yet to be fully explored, and provides new insights and perspectives for interpreting the Albanian experience….a pioneering effort in English-Language studies on Albania’’ – Nicholas C.Pano Albanian history is permeated by myths and mythical narratives that often serve political purposes, from the depiction of the legendary ‘Founder of the nation’, Skanderbeg, to the exploits pf the KLA in the recent Kosovo War. The essays in Albanian Identities , by a multinational , multidisciplinary team of scholars and non-academic specialists , deconstruct prevalent political or historiogarphical myths about Albania’s past and present , bringing to light the ways in which Albanian myths have started to justify ad direct violence , butters political power , and foster internal cohesion. Albanian Identities demonstrates the power which myths still possess to this day , as they underpin political and social processes in crisis-ridden post-totalitarian Albania.

Grupi pro – perëndimor, që natyrisht është më i madh, e sheh Europën Perëndimore dhe Shtetet e Bashkuara si burime frymëzimi ekonomik dhe kulturor. Grupi pro – lindor, megjithëse më i vogël nga pikëpamja numerike, është mjaft i fortë dhe me ndikim për shkak të drejtuesve të tij të mprehtë dhe të aftë, ndërkohë që vështron nga Lindja, për shembull nga Jugoslllavia dhe Bashkimi Sovjetik, për drejtim, frymëzim dhe mbrojtje. a. Grupi pro – amerikan: Grupi i parë me prirje perëndimore është grupi pro – amerikan, i cili besohet të jetë grupi më i madh nga pikëpamja numerike, megjithëse nuk është dhe nuk ka qenë kurrë grupi më i fortë dhe nga pikëpamja politike. Shpejgimi i parë i ekzistencës së këtij grupi pro – amerikan lidhet me faktin që, sipas vlerësimeve më të rezervuara, të paktën 25 % e popullit shqiptar (rreth 250 mijë individë) kanë qenë në Shtetet e Bashkuara ose kanë atje miq dhe të afërm, me të cilët kanë pasur një shkëmbim të vazhdueshëm idesh dhe mjetesh financiare deri në kohën kur Shtetet e Bashkuara hynë në luftë. Ky grup i madh pro – amerikan jeton pothuajse në jug të vendit. Para luftës, gati e gjithë struktura ekonomike e këtij rajoni mbështetej me kontributet e miqve dhe të afërmve në Shtetet e Bashkuara dhe nga ndërmarrjet e biznesit të shqiptarëve...

[number or issue]  is an issue of SEEU Review Title : Volume 10, Issue 1 - London Ambassadors Conference : 100 Years Later : 1913-2013 One Century Later : Special Edition Original title : SEEU Review Material Type: printed text Authors: Blerim Reka, Editor ; Bernd Fischer, Editor Publication Date: 2014 Pagination: 199 p. Size: 24 cm General note: Includes bibliographical references Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: Albanian questions - Political aspects - Balkan crisis Science Review Class number: 028.1 Abstract: The Albanian national question is arguably the last major ethnic issue facing Europe today. This volume examines the origins and progress of that issue through the twentieth and into the twenty – first century. While the Albanian question had attracted some attention during the nineteenth century, it firs became a significant European diplomatic issue at the London Conference of Ambassadors (1912 – 1913). The Conference remains one of the key milestones in the history of the Albanian national question, Balkan history, and in the history of modern European diplomacy in general. The consequences of the decisions of the Conferences still have an impact today, fully one century later. The geopolitical maneuvering at the Conference create an entirely new Balkan political map, creating new states, while at the same time dividing ethnic groups.
