INTRODUCTION Dear Reader The Civil Law Forum for South-East Europe is constituted in April 2009 by the outstanding scientists and experts in the fi eld of Civil and Commercial Law and with the support of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), by appointment of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development of Germany (BMZ). Since its establishment, The Civil Law Forum has been accompanying the reform processes in the countries of South East Europe towards the EU integration as well as conducting comparative analyses in various fi elds of Civil Law. The aim of the Civil Law Forum is to develop proposals and opinions for the reform and harmonization of the national legislations in these respectove fi elds in the participating countries, and to monitor the reform measures in those countries from an academic and professional perspective. The Civil Law Forum consists of the following members proven as an outstanding experts in the fi elds of Civil and Commercial Law: Dr. Nada Dollani (Tirana), Dr. Gale Galev (Skopje), Dr. Arsen Janevski (Skopje), Dr. Tatjana Josipović (Zagreb), Dr. Branko Morait (Banja Luka), Dr. Ardian Nuni (Ti- rana), Dr. Miodrag V. Orlić (Belgrade), Dr. Slobodan Perović (Belgrade), Dr. Meliha Povlakić (Sarajevo), Dr. Zoran Rašović (Podgorica) and Dr.Mihailo Velimirović (Podgorica). These eleven members from South-East Europe are supported by Dr. Christa Jessel-Holst (Max-Planck-Institute for Comparative and International Private Law, Hamburg, Germany) and, up to end of 2011, by Dr. Ulrich Drobnig. Having a closer look on the list of Professors one would mind, why Croatia do have only one representative. Prof. Petar Simonetti was, up to his tragic death on March 11th 2012, member of the Civil Law Forum. Due to his health condition he was unable to participate in the Second Regional Conference in but had prepared a contribution, where we have the honour, to publish it with this book. All members agreed unanimously to dedicate this book to him. He was not only one of the most respected scientists in the region but active as judge at the Supreme Court of the Socialist Republic of Bosnia and Hercegovina. During the last period of his carrier he was very active in the reform of real rights in the region. E.g. he participated in the expert working group for the Law on Property Rights which is waiting for enactment in the Federation of Bosnia and Hercegovina, while it was enforced in the Republika Srpska in 2010. Being involved in legal science and practice dur- ing Former Yugoslavia but also in the newly formed States he is refl ecting the recent history in the region. We lost a wonderful expert, a hard working professor and a friend. On 25th of March 2011, the South East European Law School Network (SEELS) is established by eleven public Law Faculties from South East Europe (Tirana, Sarajevo, Zenica, Zagreb, Rijeka, Split, Belgrade, Nis, Kragujevac, Podgorica, Skopje). With the establishment of SEELS an instrument was introduced to bundle and strengthen regional cooperation of Law Faculties to support and facilitate the European integration of the countries in the region. Aiming to create cooperation with mutual advantages and to engage into cooperative research and publishing activities, the Civil Law Forum and SEELS at the Second Regional Conference in Skopje on January 11th 2012 signed the Memoran- dum of Understanding. Since then, the activities and operation of the Civil Law Forum is under the umbrella of the SEELS Network. 5 The results of the continous research carryout out within the Civil Law Forum are presented at regional conferences followed by publication of papers. So far, two regional Conferences have been organized, the First Regional Conference in Cavtat, Croatia in October 2010 and the Second Regional Conference in Skopje, in January 2012. Hereby we would like to present you the results of the work and researches of the outstand- ing academics being members of the Civil Law Forum presented at the 2nd Civil Law Forum Regional Conference held on 11th January 2012 in Skopje. The collection of articles within this Book are prepared by the members of the Civil Law Fo- rum and supported by numerous experts, academics and young researchers from the SEELS mem- bers. The topics elaborated are divided into six parts of this Book: 1) Recent developments in the fi eld of Civil law in South East Europe; 2) Liability for material defects; 3) Liability for legal defects; 4) Remedies for non-performance in sales contracts- Damage and Interest; 5) E-conclusion of contracts; and 6) Unfair contract terms in general contract law. The collection presents the results of the working groups in two volumes: Volume I pub- lished in English language and Volume II published in local languages. In each of the two Volumes, at the begining the contributions per each of the six topics are given by the members of the Civil Law Forum, followed in Annexes with the comparative analyses and country reports prepared by the young researchers from the SEELS members. Last but not least, GIZ Open Regional Fund for South East Europe - Legal Reform express its gratitude to the members of the Civil Law Forum for South-East Europe and to the distinguished legal experts for their contributions in setting up this compilation of legal texts and analysis in vari- ous aspects of the Civil Law. In addition, special thank to the young researchers from the academic community of South East Europe for their contributions.We strongly beleive this collection will con- tribute to the further academic researches and developments of the Civil Law in South East Europe and its approximation with the EU Law. We look forward to continuing the successful regional coop- eration of the civil law experts within the SEELS Network in the period to come.

    Women Rights and Gender Equality As Per Albanian Law

    E-ISSN 2281-4612 Academic Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies Vol 5 No 1 ISSN 2281-3993 MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy March 2016 Women Rights and Gender Equality as Per Albanian law Evelina Qirjako, Ph.D. Candidate Member of Supreme Court; [email protected] Doi:10.5901/ajis.2016.v5n1p195 Abstract Following the integration process with European Union, Albania has an obligation to progress on gender equality area. In this regard, Albania should develop a comprehensive legal framework and establish effective mechanisms to address and overcome gender inequalities, as well as efficient tools and concrete results for prevention of gender based violence, rehabilitation and integration of its victims, and concrete results for advancement of women rights in all sectors of life. This article provides an overview of albanian legislation on gender equality, and relevant reccomandations for intensification of institutional steps to achieve gender equality in Albania. Keywords: gender equality; women rights; gender based violence; referal mechanism; gender discrimination; national authority for gender equality; 1. Introduction Gender Equality (equality between men and women) constitutes substantial part of human rights. The Constitution as the fundamental law of ALBANIA, provides for the principle of equality for all citizens as guaranteed by law (Article 18.) Following this universal principle, men and women, being both subjects of the law, are legally treated equally, and have equal rights and obligations, but in real life the equality is not achieved. Gender equality may achieved when as a result of application of the law men and women have same gains and responsibilities. Gender roles impact crucial personal decisions: on education, on career development, on working potentials, on family and on fertility.

    The Origins of the Kanun: Exploring the Development of the Albanian Customary Law

    Balkan Araştırma Enstitüsü Dergisi, Cilt/Volume 3, Sayı/Number 2, Aralık/December 2014, ss. 77-95. THE ORIGINS OF THE KANUN: EXPLORING THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE ALBANIAN CUSTOMARY LAW Mirjona SADIKU ABSTRACT The Kanun of Lekë Dukagjini1 constitutes a centuries-old code of behavior, regulating both individual and collective conduct. Emerging as the primary source of the country's customary law, the dominant element of northern2 subculture has emblematically influenced the entire sphere of Albanian ideas, beliefs and customs. The code represents the body of traditional law and has been orally transmitted from generation to generation, resisting in an unwritten version throughout the centuries and governing the most important aspects of the social structures among northern tribes. In the period between the collapse of Old Serbian Empire and the arrival of the Ottomans, the population of this area was free and uncontrolled and the peculiar mountainous territory was out of reach for the dominants. The code has been generally accepted for many centuries as a self-adjusting rule applied in the administration of the highland communities. Keywords: Kanun, Ottoman Empire, History, Customary Law, Blood feuds. University of Sarajevo and University of Bologna, E-mail: [email protected]. 1 The Kanun of Lek Dukagjini developed in the geographical zone of Dukagjin, a mountainous region in Eastern part of Shkodër. It embraces nearby areas such as Lezhë, Miriditë, Shalë, Shosh, Nikaj and the western plain of current Kosovo. The codification of the tribal law is attributed to Lekë Dukagjini (1410-1481), a prince and chieftain from a noble tribe, who ruled north Albania during the fifteenth century.

    E-ISSN 2039-2117 Mediterranean Journal of Social Sciences Vol 4 No 9 ISSN 2039-9340 MCSER Publishing Rome-Italy October 2013 Albanians Have always Respected the Rules Indrit Shtupi PhD Candidate at the European University of Tirana Cel: +355692926251/ [email protected] Arjan Vasjari PhD, Lector at the European University of Tirana Cel: +355686031506/ [email protected] Xhabir Zenuni European University of Tirana Doi:10.5901/mjss.2013.v4n9p36 Abstract Albanians always respected laws and rules. The oldest law was the make (rules), a kind of Constitution applied by the majority of Albanians throughout the centuries and in different regions. During the unity of Prizren, Albanians made the first attempt to edit a text in the form of the Constitution. In 1913, when Albania was recognized by the major European powers, the six major powers donated its first Constitution in the name Organic Statute. After the liberation from the fascists and the communists coming of 1946 on 11 January 1946, the Constitutional Assembly declared Albania Democratic Republic solving in this way the question of the form of government. The democratic changes in 1990 pointed the way of change and reform in the constitutional law of the country with the constitution of 1991 and the 1998. Keywords: Rules, kanun, monarch, law, statute, government, reforms, constitution. 1. Introduction The decision to write this conference relies on the finding that there is full development of the issue in Greece, due to lack of knowledge of the Albanian language by Greek writers. The analysis of this issue is of great importance because Albania was state with special status.
  • National Myths in Interdependence

    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.
