[email protected] Szerkesztésért felelős személy: CHen Xin Kiadásért felelős személy: Huang Ping china-cee.eu 2017/01 A peculiar electoral campaign Summary Tensions are running high in the political scene in Albania for the next general election to be held on April 25th. The very way of doing politics has adapted to the pandemic reality and the political narrative has shifted in scope and objectives. This briefing is an overview of how the electoral campaign is reflecting the Albanian reality on the ground and where do the main actors stand. Introduction As of March 25th the electoral campaign officially started in Albania. The contenders for the “throne” of power are displaying their agendas and their intention for the future of the country, while mobilizing their base at the maximum. Commitments, assurances, pledges, promises - Albanians have heard them all. This is the time when everything seems to be focused on the people. Once every four years, politicians become humble and listen to the citizens, for the sake of one more vote. Predominant features of the campaign As never before the electoral campaign in Albania in 2021 is particular in many ways. Due to the pandemic restriction on group gatherings and curfew after 8 p.m., there is less intensity. Yet, the logistics of it all are not the main component of this abnormal campaign.

[email protected] Szerkesztésért felelős személy: Chen Xin Kiadásért felelős személy: Huang Ping china-cee.eu 2017/01 Albania’s 2018: another political year in limbo Introduction The Albanian political landscape in 2018 was characterized by an always-present antagonism between the ruling force, PS, and the opposition coalition of PD and LSI. The stream of their public discourse had one permanent direction: accusations and counter– accusations. The Socialist Party, with the executive branch under control and the majority of the representatives in the Albanian parliament (75 out of 140) is now deep into the second mandate of governing the country. While the opposition is precipitating in an ever-deepening apathy the government is executing its agenda without any obstacles or liabilities. The main political actors: narrative, achievements and public opinion The Socialist Party (PS) is the ruling political formation in Albania, with its leader Edi Rama as the pivotal figure, is trying to present itself as a new driving force for a modern, visionary and West-oriented Albania. On the other hand, in order to be closer to Albanian tradition and national sentiments, the same PS recalled in its program past values, memoirs of nation-building process and historical reference to what is known as the “Albanian National Awakening” period (Rilindja Kombëtare). This period of National Revival reminiscences along with electoral campaign promises for welfare, rule of law and fighting unemployment and poverty resonated with the population that went into the ballots with high hopes for better governing body and stability for the country.

Juni 2011 15:36:31 GMT+02:00 An: [email protected] Why everyone is sick of #Albania the American Friend | June 17, 2011 at 9:36 am | Tags: Albania, Central Election Commission, Corruption, Democracy, Edi Rama, Elections, Lulzim Basha, Sali Berisha, Socialist Party | Categories: Albania, Democracy, Edi Rama | URL: http://wp.me/p1lKg3-sD Jun 14th 2011, 16:25 by T.J. | TIRANA RUNNING into a senior European Union official recently, I mentioned I was going to Albania. He muttered something I cannot repeat here and walked off, apparently irritated even by the mention of the country’s name. You can understand why. On May 8th the country voted in municipal elections. Over a month later we still don’t know who the mayor of Tirana is. If Albanians can’t even hold a local vote without the risk of violent disruption, think Eurocrats, they should not expect any love from Brussels. Edith Harxhi, Albania's deputy foreign minister, concurs. “For me it is extremely depressing,” she says. “The election was the best we have had so far, and there were only minor problems.” (The opposition Socialists would not agree with this rosy assessment.) The net result, says Ms Harxhi, is that “EU integration has stopped for now.” Here is a simplified summary of what happened in Tirana. People in the Albanian capital voted in four separate elections: city mayor, city council, and the same again for their own part of town.
