Anyhow whatever was done, at last this first prijës (guide) of the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports was made, and it is reasonable that it has its own defects, but of course, it has its own goods. Hoping that, anyway, the goods exceed the defects and with the conviction that my successor, that probably will wish to make the second guide, will make it better than this first one and so on, I would like to list some words for the reader who will have not only the curiosity to leaf this guide to see the pictures, but also the patience to read it word by word to in order to understand where this Ministry, so much slandered in "my time", is trying to go and what it is dealing with, whose directors of the directorates, including the people of my cabinet, are almost all younger than I am, and I am not so old. To accept to become Minister of Culture, Youth and Sports Affairs in the Albania of end of April '98 meant to face a structure and infrastructure of cultural and sports institutions which were held alive by an indescribable miracle of nature, whereas till that time, about eight years in freedom, it sufficed for the state to give for these affairs that so small budget of it (God has been willing that they have not Albanianised the word budget, which as it is told in the language of the old French, with its diminutive shape bougette, meant exactly "a small purse"), so its small purse now extremely small, somewhere between 0.3 - 0.5 %, without ever thinking to the proper measure and way for the undertaking of a multiple reform in the domain of culture and sports. Because the Ministers in succession, the same if "left" or "right" had preferred to pull but not to break the rotten thread of the old logic of the cultural administration, without managing even in a single year to spend that nothing comma something % that the governments had left in their hands with destination the institutions and the affairs described in this guide. I suffices to pass in review our cultural and sports institutions, their calendars of activity and the data of the attendance of these institutions by the consumers of the cultural production, in order to see in what point of need were reduced the affairs, while nobody had undertaken to raise in public the illusive curtain of beautiful words to show the cultural heritage in everyday ruin, the institutions peeled of moisture, the seats abandoned by the spectators, the empty pockets of the culture protectors and culture producers, the miserable conditions of their daily work, the shivering indifference of the potential native and foreign contributors and donators towards our culture and sport, and above all, the excruciating monologue of the Albanian culture of transition. Without waiting for a certain time to adjust or build something in the depreciated scene of the culture institutions, the author of these lines thought to raise the curtain in the eyes of the public, perhaps from the desire to find understanding, and why not, solidarity, in the paralysing ministerial armchair. This no doubt was his great tactical mistake, the most secure 7 CC-Cult(2000)54A evidence of the lack of political pragmatism, a result of the intellectual directness which is possessed in politics only by those short life protagonists who lack the ambition to "ascend". This mistake led to hundreds of articles devoted to the Minister personally ever since, usually contesting where, grosso modo, he was invoiced no more and no less but the destruction of the Albanian culture. But... anyway! His observations, right or not, on the past of this Ministry and the dramatic reality of the system of culture in the Albania of the years '90, are only one side of the medal. The other side is the work done in these 18 months in the administration of the Albanian culture, a summarising view of which I hope will be given by this first guide in the domain of the cultural policy of the Albanian state, which comes out exactly in the first moments of the years 2000. Many things might have been done better, as everywhere, but, if not for other things, for one thing I am very sure, for the fact that some good works have started to be made in a way that has only one direction: Forward! Edi RAMA, Minister of Culture, Youth and Sports CC-Cult(2000)54A 8 MINISTRY OF CULTURE, YOUTH AND SPORTS The Ministry of Culture Youth and Sports (MCYS) is the state administrator of the culture in Albania founded with the Decree of the President of the Republic No. 1, date 08.05.1991. MCYS aims to bring the structure and the infrastructure of the Albanian institutions of culture and sports to European standards; this is an unalienable aim in facing successfully in the domain of culture and sports the everyday and comprehensive challenge of reforming all the Albanian state structures as a state of the European model. An Albanian State of the European model can not be understood without the cultural institutions of the standards of the civilisation to which the Albanians belong and at the same time without creating real chances - within a space of inviolable human rights and freedoms and known and legally approved obligations - to guarantee the fund of the cultural heritage, and the future itself of the Albanian culture defending its spiritual, material and intellectual constituents and by inciting their cultivation. To the function of its aim, MCYS holds as motives of its being: • The processing and application of a national cultural policy to reflect the necessity of a considerable cultural dimension in the overall democratic development of the country; the need of the assertion and strengthening of the cultural identity of Albanians in the context of the region in which they live and as an integral part of the European cultural identity; the tendency towards the international cultural co-operation; • The instigation of the cultural dialogue in the region of South-eastern Europe as a vital source of harmonious relationships among cultures characterised not only by different specifics, but also by common things, as means to promote an interethnic cohabitation, a culture of peace and tolerance in an area of variegated conflicts; • The protection, defence and promotion of the national cultural heritage as a condition for the moral perfection of the society and as a source still not exploited for the economic development of this society; • The following of a cultural policy which relies on the fact that in the reality of a democratic space, which tends continuously towards the expansion, there is no other way for the civil society than to win more and more weight in the sphere of culture and that relying exactly on this fact, it works to ensure the legal conditions to release all the creative energies of the society; • The compilation of the cultural and sports policies which aim at the enlargement of the ways of the social integration and the increase of the life quality for all the members of the Albanian society by instigating the solidarity and the tolerance towards The Other.

In total there are 40 case reports and/or updates of indictments/ convictions prosecuted by SPAK and adjudicated by the Special Court (First Instance and Court of Appeals). The cases selected are mostly of a high profile, either due to the public officials involved, or because of the important trend they represent in tackling organized crime and corruption. The independent comments provided for each case aim to evaluate, from a qualitative perspective, whether these two new institutions are delivering concrete results, worthy of building a track record against organized crime and corruption.

  • Political Relations Between Albania and France 1945- 1990
    ISSN 2039-2117 (online) Mediterranean Journal of Vol 8 No 5 S1 ISSN 2039-9340 (print) Social Sciences September 2017 Political Relations between Albania and France 1945- 1990 Arshela Arapi Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Paris, France Abstract This paper focuses on the relations between Albania and France in the period 1945-1990 in the political optics, and aims to evaluate the dynamics of this cooperation, pointing to the different intensity at different times during dictatorship, byhilosophical demagoguery of the Albanian party and the identification of collaborative priorities extended over 20 years. Albanian - French cooperation spread in all fields. Since our country was still unconfirmed as a state, it needed the experience of other countries. France was a kind of guide to our country, as it was a developed country. Albania also linked with France by some traditional and conjunctural elements. France regarded Albania as very important, and considered it as an opportunity to expand its economy and improve its situation. France needed the mineral resources of Albania. In general, our relations with France has been normal and were concretized in several areas of mutual interest, such as trade and culture. In various speeches, the Albanian leadership has expressed the desire to strengthen more these relations on the basis of the recognized principles of equality, non-interference and mutual benefit. But at certain times, there was also anxiety, and in July 1984, there was a regress of state relations. Keywords: France, collaboration, convention, strategy 1. Introduction In the framework of the complex historical evaluation of the diplomatic policy of the Albanian country, the relationships, with the European countries in general and those of the Western Europe especially, hold a great importance.

  • Albania's Journey to Self Reliance & the U.S. Albania Transparency Academy
    UNCLASSIFIED Albania’s Journey to Self Reliance & The U.S. Albania Transparency Academy Overview Since 1992, USAID has invested more than $500 million in Albania to support political pluralism; civil society; effective local governments; independent media; the rule of law; the energy and health sectors; free-market economic systems; and sustainable economic growth, including through the development of tourism, and micro-enterprise partnerships. This assistance over the past 28 years has led to significant political and economic reforms in Albania. Today, Albania is advanced in its journey to self-reliance for a middle-income country, having demonstrated its commitment and capacity to plan, finance, and implement solutions to its own development challenges. These achievements show Albania is well-positioned to take on more ownership of its development challenges. The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)’s Journey to Self Reliance (J2SR) is a ​ ​ commitment to work closely with host-country partners to address their development challenges with the goal of ending the need for development assistance. As part of this effort, USAID has developed Road Maps with metrics that identify strengths and weaknesses in a country’s commitment and capacity to solve its own development challenges. Albania’s J2SR indicators show that it is one of the five most “self-reliant” countries where 1 USAID operates globally .​ Thus, USAID is forging a new development partnership between ​ USAID and the Government of Albania (GoA). USAID has been gradually shifting from supporting a multi-sector programmatic approach to a more focused approach that addresses some of Albania’s central development challenges, particularly in rule of law, economic development and energy.

  • Dr. Robert Elsie Like with Unsophisticated
    INTRODUCTION Faïk bey Konitza (1875-1942) was one of the great figures of Albanian intellectual culture in the early decades of the twentieth century and was no doubt the first Albanian whom one might consider to have been a real European. Konitza was born on 15 March 1875 in the now village of Konitsa in the Pindus mountains in northern Greece, not far from the present Albanian border. After elementary schooling in Turkish in his native village, he studied at the Jesuit Saverian College in Shkodra which offered him not only some instruction in Albanian but also an initial contact with central European culture and Western ideas. From there, he continued his schooling at the French- language Imperial Galata secondary school in Constantinople. In 1890, at the age of fifteen, he was sent to study in France where he spent the next seven years. After initial education at secondary schools in Lisieux (1890) and Carcassonne (1892), he registered at the University of Dijon, from which he graduated in 1895 in Romance philology. After graduation, he moved to Paris for two years where he studied mediaeval French, Latin and Greek at the Collège de France. He finished his studies at Harvard University in the United States, although little is known of this period of his life. As a result of his highly varied educational background, he was able to speak and write Albanian, Italian, French, German, English and Turkish fluently. Konitza's stay in France, a country of long-standing liberal democratic traditions, was to have a profound effect on him and he was able to acquire and adopt the patterns of Western thinking as no Albanian intellectual had ever done before him.
