It is mainly located in the so called “marginal areas” by small farms. Organic market in Albania can be considered as at a very starting stage with small niches marketing point but with a growing interest of consumers for fresh productions with limited processing activities. The conditions for a better partaking in the country’s markets is, however, desirable since commercial and trade between Albania and other countries, mainly EU’s, is readily growing.

  • The Role of Agriculture in Economic Development in Albania
    International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Management United Kingdom ISSN 2348 0386 Vol. IX, Issue 6, June 2021 http://ijecm.co.uk/ THE ROLE OF AGRICULTURE IN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN ALBANIA Ardian Cerava Faculty of Agriulture, University ‘Fan S. Noli’, Korça, Albania [email protected] Eneida Përmeti Çifligu Faculty of Agriulture, University ‘Fan S. Noli’, Korça, Albania Ilir Sosoli Faculty of Agriulture, University ‘Fan S. Noli’, Korça, Albania Abstract Agriculture plays a major role in the Albanian economy in this article we have tried to analyze and give examples of how important agriculture is and its role in the Albanian economy. It occupies an important place in the gross domestic product and this is clearly shown in the following explanation. Agriculture in Albania as you will see below is a very important part of the Albanian economy. In our country, although agriculture accounts for 18.9% of GDP and a large share of exports, it is mainly limited to small family operations and subsistence agriculture due to lack of modern equipment, unclear property rights, such as and small spread, inefficient land parcels .etc .If the right investment are made in agriculture we will see that the percentage that it contributes in the county economy it will be much higher. Keywords: agriculture, economic development, GDP, Albania Licensed under Creative Common Page 304 International Journal of Economics, Commerce and Management, United Kingdom INTRODUCTION The analysis of the role of agriculture in the development process has always been a matter of priority research in development economics studies, albeit with somewhat different ups and downs and interpretations.

  • Albanian Seasonal Work Migration to Greece: a Case of Last Resort?
    Chapter 8 Albanian Seasonal Work Migration to Greece: A Case of Last Resort? Julie Vullnetari Since the collapse of the communist regime in 1990, Albania has witnessed large- scale emigration—particularly to neighbouring Greece and Italy, but also further afield to the UK and the USA. By 2010 it was estimated that more than 1.4 million Albanian emigrants lived abroad, comprising nearly 45 % of the resident population of Albania of 3.2 million (World Bank 2011, p. 54). However, such emigration was not without historical precedent. Albanians had migrated far and wide for centuries, whether for work or forced to do so by wars, local conflicts, and strife. Indeed, labour migration played a central role for Albanians as it did for all Mediterranean peoples (Psimmenos and Georgoulas 2001, p. 9). The earliest mass migration in the collective memory of Albanians took place in the second half of the fifteenth century, following the death of Albania’s national hero Scanderbeg in 1467 and the beginning of the Ottoman conquest. Five centuries under Ottoman rule were accom- panied by further emigration. Many Albanian men fled to escape blood feuds, local lords, or Ottoman persecution; yet others simply emigrated to escape poverty or to work in various trades and professions, especially craftsmen such as masons, road- builders, carpenters, ironsmiths, and goldsmiths (Tirta 1999). Others left to study in key centres of learning such as Cairo and Constantinople, while many professional men settled in the bigger cities of the Empire for a career in administration, the army, or in professions such as medicine and the law.

  • National Myths in Interdependence
    National Myths in Interdependence: The Narratives of the Ancient Past among Macedonians and Albanians in the Republic of Macedonia after 1991 By Matvey Lomonosov Submitted to Central European University Nationalism Studies Program In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts CEU eTD Collection Advisor: Professor Maria Kovács Budapest, Hungary 2012 Abstract The scholarship on national mythology primarily focuses on the construction of historical narratives within separate “nations,” and oftentimes presents the particular national ist elites as single authors and undisputable controllers of mythological versions of the past. However, the authorship and authority of the dominant national ist elites in designing particular narratives of the communal history is limited. The national past, at least in non- totalitarian societies, is widely negotiated, and its interpretation is always heteroglot . The particular narratives that come out of the dominant elites’ “think-tanks” get into a polyphonic discursive milieu discussing the past. Thus they become addressed to alternative narratives, agree with them, deny them or reinterpret them. The existence of those “other” narratives as well as the others’ authorship constitutes a specific factor in shaping mythopoeic activities of dominant political and intellectual national elites. Then, achieving personal or “national” goals by nationalists usually means doing so at the expense or in relations to the others. If in this confrontation the rivals use historical myths, the evolution of the later will depend on mutual responses. Thus national historical myths are constructed in dialogue, contain voices of the others, and have “other” “authors” from within and from without the nation in addition to “own” dominant national ist elite.
