Hyrje3 E drejta për t’u harruarështë një zhvillim i ri në fushën e të drejtave të njeriut, diktuar nga rrethanat e sotme teknologjike dhe përhapjes masive të Internetit. Përtej mjeteve të shkruara apo pajisjeve të hershme, Interneti, mediat sociale, motorët e kërkimit dhe jo vetëm, e kanë shndërruar informacionin dhe komunikimin në të kudogjendshëm dhe një lehtësi pa të cilën jeta nuk mund të imagjinohet. Është tashmë e ditur që Interneti është një mjet komunikimi dhe informacioni i dallueshëm nga media e shkruar, veçanërisht për sa i përket kapacitetit për të ruajtur dhe transmetuar informacion. Për pasojë, rreziku i dëmit që mund t’i shkaktohet ushtrimit dhe gëzimit të të drejtave dhe lirive të njeriut, dhe sidomos të drejtës së privatësisë, është sigurisht më i lartë se sa nga shtypi e shkruar.4 E drejta për t’u harruar është fryt i një kombinimi mes zhvillimit të teknologjisë dhe nevojës për gjetjen e një rregullimi në mbrojtjen e të drejtave individuale të secilit prej nesh. Duke marrë parasysh jurisprudencen ndërkombëtare, e drejta për t’u harruar konsiderohet pjesë e të drejtës së privatësisë sepse vetë thelbi i saj është kontrolli i individit mbi të dhënat e tij /saj personale. Duke qenë se vetë mjetet e shpërndarjes së mendimit janë ata që e kanë sjellë nevojën për pasjen e së drejtës për t’u harruar, natyrshëm lind nevoja për balancimin me lirinë e shprehjes. Megjithatë, e drejta për t’u harruar është një risi dhe ende nuk ka mjaft çështje specifi ke nën këtë të drejtë. Kërkesat vij në kryesisht si cënime të së drejtës së privatësisë apo mbrojtjes së të dhënave personale. 1 Gjykata Europiane e të Drejtave të Njeriut. 2 Gykata e Drejtësisë e Bashkimit Europian. 3 Për një përkufi zim dhe analizëmë të gjerë të së drejtës për t’u harruar shiko: Besnik Muçi, Eugerta Muçi “Defi ning the right to be forgotten and its relationship with freedom of expression”, European Journal of Economics, Law and Social Sciences, Volume 4, No 1, January 2020. 4 Bordi Editorial i Pravoye Delo dhe Shtekel v.

The views and opinions expressed in this report are that of the authors and do not reflect those of the Government of the United Kingdom or the Westminster Foundation for Democracy. Tirana, November 2020 FOREWORD This publication deals with a historic overview of the civic movements in Albania after ‘90s, provides a summary of movements in other countries, and dwells into the current landscape of these movements by more specifically analyzing only six of the current movements. The aim has been to look into their capacities, membership, activity level and to assess whether there is a possibility for them to mobilize support and trigger change into the democratization process in Albania. An important part of this report was to survey and measure citizen’s perception of accepting and following these movements. To note here is the fact that the current pre-election phase is a very dynamic one with various developments such as the emerging of new movements and/or political parties or ceasing of other ones. On one side, the public faith in politics and political structures has been eroded in the last years, and on the other side, the citizen’s activism has been fragmented in the best case.

  • Red and Black Alliance As a New Movement, Its Establishment Process and Its Topic Representation As a Nationalist Movement
    ISSN 2410-3918 Academic Journal of Business, Administration, Law and Social Sciences Vol. 7 No. 2 Acces online at www.iipccl.org IIPCCL Publishing, Graz-Austria July, 2021 Red and Black alliance as a new movement, its establishment process and its topic representation as a nationalist movement Elinda Guri University of Tirana, Albania Abstract This article aims to analyse Red and Black Alliance, a new nationalistic movement in Albania which was established in 2011. Considering its originality as a new social movement in the Albanian context, it is important to explore which were the main factors that made this movement happen. It will be analysed below that the Red and Black Alliance was initially shaped by concrete issues which had consequences for society and the nation. Specifically, the Red and Black Alliance was initially formed as a movement against concrete issues which were related to the possibility to change the nationality by a court decision and then by opposing the law on population census on ethnic and religious grounds. Regarding the law on population census it must be stated that there were a lot of public positions and articulated contrary to the law on the census on ethnic and religious grounds, a petition was drafted and the case was sent also to the constitutional court. The aforementioned new issues which were articulated concretely by the Red and Black Alliance served as the starting point for this movement. Then the identity of the movement was built on the basis of the national issue which according to the Red and Black Alliance was untreated and misused and in the framework of the national issue various initiatives and actions were proposed and undertaken.

  • Migena Pengili Why Yes and Why Not Can Albania Be
    Paper prepared for the Third Euroacademia International Conference Re-Inventing Eastern Europe Berlin, 28-29 March 2014 This paper is a draft Please do not cite 1 Why “yes” and why “not” can Albania be Europeanized. Actors and factors. Migena Pengili Independent Researcher IR and Security Studies Europeanization is indispensable for the state and democracy’s survival in Albania. As a process that promotes and fosters democracy, Europeanization requires conformity with conditions for European Union (EU) membership. For the third time (2010, 2011, 2013), Albanians’ dream to become part of the European family, not only geographically, failed to do so. In December 2013, the Dutch parliament’s decision with a majority of vote of the VVD party (People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy) obliged the Dutch government to prevent the EC to vote EU candidate status for Albania. While exploring the recent past, the violent domestic political developments of January 2011, and the disability of the political elite to manage the local election process in May 2011, put a question mark on the promptness of Albania, a NATO member, to join EU on 2011. On the other hand, in 2013 the assessment of the Commission was that Albania’s delivery to the EU merits candidate status. These dichotomies lead to a question: Why ‘yes’ and why ’not` can Albania be Europeanized? This paper seeks the answer by identifying and analyzing the actors and factors that errand the process of Europeanization in the country. Hence, while the net advantages of EU membership have an important systemic impact on the international and domestic performance of Albania, Europeanization associates with major problems in the country.

This visit took place in a very different political environment compared to our previous visit in June 2011. Despite ongoing antagonism, the opposition has ended its boycott of the work of the parliament. This will facilitate the implementation of the reforms needed to obtain EU candidate status. The main objective of our visit was to familiarise ourselves with: the ongoing electoral and parliamentary reforms; developments with regard to the fight against corruption and especially the reform of the current system of immunity for parliamentarians, judges and other State officials; developments in relation to the upcoming presidential elections; as well as the investigation into the 21 January 2011 events in Tirana. 2.

  • Nationalism, EU Integration, and Stability in the Western Balkans
    In: IFSH (ed.), OSCE Yearbook 2015, Baden-Baden 2016, pp. 151-163. Jenny Nordman Nationalism, EU Integration, and Stability in the Western Balkans Introduction Ethnic nationalism was a key factor in many of the tragedies the Balkan re- gion experienced in the 1990s, and a tool frequently used by Balkan polit- icians in order to strengthen their power. While it seems that all of the Balkan countries have showed considerable commitment towards democratic and EU-oriented reforms, tensions between ethnic groups and nationalist rhetoric among political elites nevertheless remains a feature of politics in the region. This contribution aims to show that threats of nationalism and instability have recently been used by politicians in the Western Balkan countries to- wards international organizations in order to increase their leverage in mem- bership negotiations. In particular, the threat of nationalism has been used in order to increase pressure upon the European Union to speed up the EU inte- gration process, which is therefore the focus of this article. It seeks to explain the logic behind this rhetoric, and to present various views on the question of whether there may be links between the absence of visible progress towards EU integration and increased tensions between ethnic groups and threats to stability in the region. This is done by providing examples of official state- ments and media pronouncements and seeking explanations for them in studies of nationalism and EU integration. The contribution also poses the question of how the EU’s transformative power in the region can be sus- tained. Nationalism in the Western Balkans since the 1990s After the 1990s, when politics promoting nationalism and unity based on eth- nicity culminated in a series of wars and armed conflicts, the Western Bal- kans countries have faced the task of creating civic national identities based on international norms of democracy, human rights, and free markets.

Signature Perparim Xhaferi 9/11/2018 2 Acknowledgements I wish to thank my Principal supervisor, Professor Peter Morgan for his constant support during my candidature. With his persistence and trust he guided me from day one until the completion of this thesis. Peter’s guidance was also crucial in opening my eyes to different ways of thinking and being. I wish to thank Ismail Kadare who, despite his busy agenda, in August 2013, allocated some time to meet with me and discuss his thesis regarding Albanian identity.
