  • Language Policiy for the Tendency of the Sound Complex in the Albanian Anthroponymy and Patronymic
    ISSN 2411-9598 (Print) European Journal of May-August 2017 ISSN 2411-4103 (Online) Language and Literature Studies Volume 3 Issue 2 Language Policiy for the Tendency of the Sound Complex in the Albanian Anthroponymy and Patronymic Prof. Phd. Nexhip Mërkuri Elira Xhakollari University “Ismail.Qemali” Vlorë Albania Abstract The authors reflects on the progress of anthroponymy and patronomy sounds tendency and its applied linguistic policy in the last century and the beginning of the new millennium. The research is carried out in two periods: during and post-communism. The authors have done a long-time research on this topic, which has resulted in an accurate argumentative discourse on pre-linguistic choices of these sonoric complex usages in family discourse. The authors have listed carefully the entry of Illyrian/Albanian names and the tendency of sonoric usages, which were part of language planning process; and everything is argued on the basis of national spirit of the time. The linguistic policy of entering of Illyrian names into family discourse is also seen as a general trend of Renaissance (1730-1912) for the purpose of restoring historic memory to Albanians. After the 1990-s, the beginning of democracy in Albania, nonetheless the publishing of the study on newborn names, the linguistic policy has never been applied for many reasons. For the last two years, 2015-2016, linguistics, students, surveyors, educational secretaries, members of civil status, have listed a number of reasons on the choices of the names of newborns in Albania. The freedom of choice of the sonoric complex, the trend of names, the tendency of names in the western world, emigration, etc., are some of the reasons to justify the choices and the linguistic behavior of sonoric complexes.

  • The Differential Impact of War and Trauma on Kosovar Albanian Women Living in Post-War Kosova
    The Differential Impact of War and Trauma on Kosovar Albanian Women Living in Post-War Kosova Hanna Kienzler Department of Anthropology McGill University, Montreal June 2010 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy © 2010 Hanna Kienzler Abstract The war in Kosova had a profound impact on the lives of the civilian population and was a major cause of material destruction, disintegration of social fabrics and ill health. Throughout 1998 and 1999, the number of killings is estimated to be 10,000 with the majority of the victims being Kosovar Albanian killed by Serbian forces. An additional 863,000 civilians sought or were forced into refuge outside Kosova and 590,000 were internally displaced. Moreover, rape and torture, looting, pillaging and extortion were committed. The aim of my dissertation is to rewrite aspects of the recent belligerent history of Kosova with a focus on how history is created and transformed through bodily expressions of distress. The ethnographic study was conducted in two Kosovar villages that were hit especially hard during the war. In both villages, my research was based on participant observation which allowed me to immerse myself in Kosovar culture and the daily activities of the people under study. The dissertation is divided into four interrelated parts.The first part is based on published accounts describing how various external power regimes affected local Kosovar culture, and how the latter was continuously transformed by the local population throughout history. The second part focuses on collective memories and explores how villagers construct their community‟s past in order to give meaning to their everyday lives in a time of political and economic upheaval.

  • The Term Soft Power Has Been Championed by Joseph S
    Strategy for export of Kosovo’s cultural assets Olta Andoni* I. Introduction Kosovo, the NEWBORN state, is enjoying its independence. The long dreamed aspirations are more than real for Kosovo right now. Looking forward to the future and being recognized by more countries is another “war” for Kosovo. Seeking new avenues in this direction is the key to the newest state in the world. However, the next “war” of Kosovo has to be a muted and psychological one. Whether it will be successful or not depends on a series of factors. Kosovo, as a new independent state, is more focused on working toward the accession by new states, neglecting the relevance of the arts and culture in the process. But no development is expected without the interplay of the culture. If culture is defined as the entire system of beliefs, practices and customs that exist in a society, it is the foundation that supports every development.1 Economic development without cultural roots will never be sustainable.2 Relying on the power of art and culture is crucial for Kosovo’s future. This paper examines the importance of the art and culture on bridging the gap between a new state, its neighbors and the world. * LL.M. IP Candidate 2009, Chicago-Kent College of Law. Thank you to Prof. Perritt for encouraging the author to come up with a strategy to assist the export of cultural assets of the newest state in the world, Kosovo. 1The power of Culture, http://powerofculture.nl/en/theme/policy.html, (last visited on Dec.2, 2008).

  • Youth Policy in Albania Council of Europe in 1997
    ID 9540 Albania is the seventeenth country to have undergone an international review of its national youth policy, a series which was started by the Youth policy in Albania Council of Europe in 1997. The review was performed in 2009 during two one-week visits by a team of international experts working on the basis of the Albanian National Youth Strategy, published in 2007. The report focuses on three issues identified by the Albanian government: the law, delivery mechanisms and youth participation, and three issues identified as important by the review team itself: youth information, leisure-time activities and youth crime and justice. While reviewing the youth policy in Albania with special attention to theses issues, the international team came across a number of specific or cross-sectoral subjects (education, health, minorities, etc.) which helped depict a broad picture of the situation of young people in the country. Recommendations made by the international team, cover not only government action, but address steps to be taken by those who take part, at all levels, in the shaping of youth policy in Albania. Youth policy in Albania The Council of Europe has 47 member states, covering virtually the entire continent of Europe. It seeks to develop common democratic and legal principles based on the European Convention on Human Rights and other reference texts on the protection of individuals. Ever since it was founded in 1949, in the aftermath of the Second World War, the Council of Europe has symbolised reconciliation.

S pomočjo novega gradiva, zbranega pri terenskem raziskovanju (Egipt: 18. 9. 1986-16. 3. 1987; Kosovo: večkratno bivanje od leta 1983 dalje) po­ vezuje določen del ljudske glasbe na zemljepisno oddaljenih področjih, ki sta del kul­ turne sfere islama in ki sta bili stoletja v turškem imperiju. Poznavanje ljudske glasbe na ozemlju Kosova pomaga pri razumevanju „virov", podatki, zbrani v glasbeno najpo­ membnejši arabski deželi, pa omogočajo osvetlitev sorodnih pojavov na Kosovu. če­ prav bi osredotočenje na klasično arabsko glasbo pokazalo izrazitejše podobnosti z ur­ bano glasbeno prakso te jugoslovanske pokrajine, je avtor zavestno izbral še ne dovolj obdelano tematiko, ki nam daje koristen vpogled v vsako področje posebej in potem tudi primerjavo. Razprava obsega štiri dele. Uvod pojasnjuje izbor teme in opozarja na značilnosti metodologije dela za vsako področje posebej. Druga tematska enota je posvečena Egiptu. Potem ko so podani splošni podatki, je gradivo glede glasbe in plesa razporeje­ no v treh poglavjih. Ta zajemajo: stari Egipt do nastopa islama, islamizirani Egipt do srede 20. stoletja in drugo polovico XX. stoletja, kjer je tudi izvedena bolj temeljita obravnava glasbe, plesa in instrumentov.

Kushtrim Jakupi Faculty of Music of Pristina University Abstract Albanian folk music, this great treasure preserved over generations is an expression of high con- sciousness of everything precious inherited from the past. In determining the typology of this folklore, Albanian Ethnomusicology rightly refers to two major ethnographic divisions, which, according to the natural boundary defined by Shkumbini River, are Gheg in the northern part and Tosk, south of it. In a general approach (even within these two large ethno music areas, folk- lore is presented with its striking diversity), it can be said, that: northern folklore, respectively Gheg one, is distinguished for its monodic singing, based on oj- and chromatic modes with 11 sounds, influenced by oriental music, while southern folk music generally appears unified iniso polyphony, which by modal perspective is built on pentatonic (Tole, 2007, 5). The types of degree’s steps that are encountered in Albanian folklore music can be divided in two categories, defined by their own origins. In the first group, the so-called diatonic modes, include older modes, in which did not penetrate the later influences that came from the Orient (when Albanian became part of the Ottoman Empire) (Koçi, 2002, 143), a part of which with ancient origins, like three, tetra, penta and hexachord, while the rest derived from church modes, like eolik and jonic, but also anhemitonic pentatonic.

  • Kosova'da Roman Müziği Ve Kültüründe Kadın, Erkek Ve Ötesi
    TOPLUMSAL CİNSİYET BAHAR 2013 / SAYI 6 KOSOVA’DA ROMAN MÜZİĞİ VE KÜLTÜRÜNDE KADIN, ERKEK VE ÖTESİ Svanibor Pettan Çeviren: Burcu Yıldız Kitabın editorü Tullia Magrini giriş bölümünde müzik araştırmasının; “toplumsal cinsiyetlendirilmiş etkinlik” ya da “toplumsal cinsiyetlendirilmiş kültür” olarak “kadınların müzikal pratiklerini ortaya koyup müzikal dünyamızın resmini tamamlama ihtiyacının ötesine” geçmesi gerektiğini savunur- ken kesinlikle haklıdır. Toplumsal cinsiyetin ikili algısının, kişiler tarafından ‘alternatif toplumsal cinsiyet tanımları” ile sorgulandığı müzikal pratikler beni özellikle şaşırtmıştır (Sugarman 1997: 32 ile karşılaştırın).1 Birçok çalışma bu durumun dünyanın çeşitli kültürlerinde var olduğunu öne sürer. Birkaç tanesinden bahsetmek gerekirse, Amerika Yerlileri (örn., Hill 1935; Whitehead 1981), Tahiti- liler (Levy 1971), Ummanlılar (Wikan 1977), Kenyalılar (Shepherd 1977), ve Türkler (Stokes, kitapta 13. bölüm) örnek verilebilir. Bu çalışmalar, kendi kültürlerindeki algılanış farklılıkların yanında, belli başlı durumlarda da önemli farklılıklar gösterirler. Cinsiyet ve toplumsal cinsiyetin eşleştiği erkek-kadın ikiliğine bir alternatif geliştirmek için, sistemi elinde tutan kültürel verilerle tanışıklık kurmak gerekir. Kosova’nın Balkan bölgesinde toplumsal cinsiyet bağlamında trans müzikal pratiklerine dair özel bir örnek durum üzerine yü- rüttüğüm tartışmalara, bölgedeki ve Roman (Çingene) nüfusunun içindeki toplumsal cinsiyet ve müzik tartışmaları ile başlamamın nedeni budur.2 Bu bölümde iki temel sebeple geçmiş
