  • THE MOUNTAIN VILLAGE of RAZËM Figure II-0.1 – Razëm on the Map of Albania
    PART II THE MOUNTAIN VILLAGE OF RAZËM Figure II-0.1 – Razëm on the map of Albania. CHAPTER II.0 General overview Villages Administrative Administrative Municipality Region Units Offices Vrith-Razëm Shkrel Koplik Malësi e Madhe Shkodër Razëm is a hamlet of the mountain village of Vrith, which is only 4 km away (Fig. II-0.1). After the administrative reform in 2015, Vrith became part of Malësi e Madhe, the northernmost of the Albanian municipalities and as such, a border place. This pe- culiar geographic location – mountainous isolation on the one hand, and the constant threat from neighbouring nations on the other – also resulted in the creation and de- velopment of specific social and cultural phenomena. Two examples worth mention- ing are the traditional rhapsodic chants based on the Eposi i Kreshnikëve1 (a cultural heritage of inestimable value) and the celebrated collection of customary laws gath- ered in the Kanun code2. Razëm lies within the Regional Natural Park of Shkrel (established as a protected area in 2014) and is considered the ‘gateway’ to the Western Albanian Alps. Together with the villages of Reç e Bogë, Razëm forms a triad of great interest from the point of view of tourism (Figs. II-0.2 and II-0.3). The Alpine area on which it stands is characterised by a vast network of trails and a series of high-altitude pastures (bjeshkë) with numerous mountain hut settlements 1 The chants of the oral tradition collected in the Epos narrate stories inspired by the wars against the enemies who came from beyond the Serbian border.

For instance, the allocation of health and social care funding, housing, roads, water and sewerage and the provision and maintenance of schools have all distinctive aspects in urban and rural areas. Employment for urban and rural population has different features as well. In Albania, as in most other countries, it is difficult to distinguish exactly the urban population from the rural one. Even though not always reflecting what is certainly urban or rural, in Albania, the administrative definition based on the law is used also for statistical purposes. However, the present availability of small-area data derived from the 2011 population and housing census covering the entire territory of the country, has made possible an attempt to introduce also in Albania new definitions and classifications of urban and rural areas for statistical purposes.

  • People and Plants in Lëpushë Traditional Medicine, Local Foods and Post- Communism in a Northern Albanian Village
    CHAPTER 2 People and Plants in Lëpushë Traditional Medicine, Local Foods and Post- communism in a Northern Albanian Village Andrea Pieroni Introduction This is the story of a village and its surrounding alpine settlements in a very remote, mountainous area in upper Kelmend, northern Albania. This story tells of the people who have remained in this place since the fall of the communist regime in 1991, either because it was so special to them that they did not want to leave, or because they could not fi nd the means to migrate, either legally or illegally, to the United States or Western Europe, as most of the other inhabitants of northern Albania have done. It also tells of how the villagers have managed to provide their own healthcare as they continue living in the mountains, sustained by their cows, pigs, potatoes, cabbages and corn, while facing the dramatic collapse of their national economy and their institutionalized health and transport systems. This is the brief story of their traditional medicine (TM) and local foods, of their interactions with their natural environment where they gather wild plants for food and medicines, and of the gender relations prescribed by these traditional practices. It also tells of the dramatic changes this village has had to face since the end of the communist era. This story, like every story, expresses a personal view: it describes what I myself have observed and refl ected on, and is therefore undoubtedly biased by my own subjectivity. People and Plants in Lëpushë | 17 Albania Albania is located in the Balkan Peninsula, and bordered by Montenegro and Kosova in the north and northeast, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia in the east and Greece in the south.
