HEIJMAN2 1Department of Social Sciences, Economics of Consumers and Households Group, Wageningen University, Wageningen, the Netherlands 2Department of Social Sciences, Agricultural Economics and Rural Policy Group, Wageningen University, Wageningen, the Netherlands Abstract: Kosovo is an economy in transition with a high unemployment, a young population and structural problems. Clusters could be considered as an appropriate approach to develop the region. Th is paper deals with the economic pro- spects of the Kosovar wine cluster, its current opportunities and the introduction of new approaches. Th e analysis was based on the Porter’s innovation theory and the diamond model. Th e Kosovar wine sector could be a promising example for the future cluster development. Wine has a long history in Kosovo although wine consumption is not widespread. Th is paper presents the main problems and opportunities within this sector, describing its structural changes and current developments. Th e study aims to introduce its readers to the potential that the cluster development can off er as well as to understand the local circumstances. Its main focus is therefore to introduce the advantages and opportunities that clusters could bring to this sector, considering the three pillars of sustainable development, namely economic growth, environmen- tal and social development, and achieving competitiveness. Key words: agribusiness sector, business clusters, competitiveness, diamond model, Kosovo, Porter’s innovation theory, Serbia, sustainable development, wine.

This research project analyzes how the Government of Kosovo allocates its public expenditures. Two particular strategic documents are examined—the Economic Vision 2011-2014 and the National Development Strategy 2016-2021. It does so by analyzing whether or not the priorities set in these strategies are translated in Medium-Term Expenditure Frameworks and the Budget Laws. Finally, this research project examines how the allocated public expenditures are realized. The research concludes that despite the well- established written strategies, a wide gap exists between the priorities set and their actual execution. 1 ALLOCATION OF PUBLIC EXPENDITURES IN KOSOVO Acknowledgments To the professors who have encouraged me to follow the path of economics.

  • Kosovo Economy & Society After 1945
    Conflict Studies Research Centre G103 Kosovo Economy & Society After 1945 Some Observations James Pettifer This paper argues that many of the dilemmas the international community is facing in Kosovo have their origins in the immediate post-1945 period, and that lack of understanding of the nature of Kosovo society under communism and the Kosovo economy under Titoism is hampering the international community in governing Kosovo today. In the current major political and military conflict in Kosovo which culminated in the NATO bombing campaign, refugee exodus and subsequent withdrawal of Yugoslav troops and police from Kosovo in June 1999, the recent history of Kosovo has tended to be discussed from the period of the accession to power of Slobodan Milosevic in the late 1980s, and in more or less exclusively political terms. The 1974 Constitution, with its democratisation proposals, is usually about the limit of most non-Kosovars’ historical perspective. Yet in a recent British television interview the US Balkan negotiator Richard Holbrooke made the interesting revelation that in the latter stages of the Febuary 1999 negotiations before the NATO campaign began, it was events in Kosovo in 1946 that were at the forefront of Slobodan Milosevic’s mind.1 The violence that Milosevic was recalling was part of a much wider and deeper political crisis that occurred in Kosovo after World War II that has been little understood in the West. It is nevertheless still of seminal importance is assessing options for the future of Kosovo. Thousands of ethnic Albanians rose in revolt against the Tito government and disturbances continued in Kosovo for the next few years.

  • Sample Chapter
    chapter one Introduction n march 24, 1999, NATO went to war for the first time Oin its fifty-year history. Its target was not a country, but a man. As the Serb leader of Yugoslavia, Slobodan Milosevic had been most responsible for a decade of violence that accompanied the breakup of Yugo- slavia. Well over a hundred thousand people had been killed and millions displaced in Croatian and Bosnian wars during the first part of the 1990s. Now a similar humanitarian catastrophe threatened in Kosovo, part of Serbia, the heart of the former Yugoslavia. Milosevic’s security forces were arrayed against the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA), a small insurgent force, and the ethnic Albanians who dominated the area’s population. In the previous year of fighting, nearly two thousand people had been killed and many hundreds of thousands were driven from their homes. A full-scale war in Kosovo be- tween Serbs and Albanians would likely have been particularly brutal, leav- ing untold death and destruction in its wake. Compounding the likely humanitarian disaster was the potential for large numbers of refugees en- gulfing the fragile border countries of Macedonia and Albania, with conse- quences for stability and security across the entire region. So NATO went to war. For a decade, the alliance had wavered in its re- solve to confront Milosevic. At times, the Serb leader had proven a willing partner in negotiating a halt to the region’s violence. More often, he had been the source of that violence. For more than a year, the United States and its principal European allies had tried to head off a military confrontation by seeking to engage the man most responsible for the carnage that had befallen Kosovo, an approach similar to that followed in Croatia and Bosnia earlier in the decade.
