Prof. M. L. Pinitbhand Paribatra, Ph.D. Academic Years 2017 ABSTRACT According to Thai constitutions, parliament has legal duty and power to engage in foreign policy, but it was not until 2007 that Thai parliament could play much of an assertive role in the foreign policy process. Parliamentarians amended section 224 of the constitution of 1997 in order to control and check the cabinet and government in the matter of negotiations with other states and international organizations and to allow itself to engage in the process of foreign policy making. Through adding more stages in conduct of negotiation, parliament could be a part of consideration and approval of negotiation framework and final agreed text, not merely acknowledgment. -

An Ottoman Story Until the End: Reading Fan Noli's Post
Journal of Balkan and Black Sea Studies Year 3, Issue 5, December 2020, pp. 121-144. An Ottoman Story Until the End: Reading Fan Noli’s Post-Mediterranean Struggle in America, 1906-1922 Isa Blumi Abstract: As the lives of so many men and women in the late nineteenth century Ottoman Balkans collapsed, many began to invest in ways to circumvent the accompanying powers of the modern state. An equal number attempted to manage the changes by availing themselves to the evolving Ottoman state with the hope of fusing efforts of reform with the emerging political-cultural structures of the larger world that was explicitly geared to tear the multi-ethnic Ottoman Balkans apart. By exploring the manner in which some members of the Balkans’ cultural elite adapted as their worlds transformed, this article introduces new methods of interpreting and narrating transitional periods such as those impacting men like Fan S. Noli. His itinerary itself reveals just how complex life in the Balkans and Black Sea would be during the 1878-1922 period, but not one entirely subordinate to the ethno-nationalist agenda so often associated with him. Keywords: Albanian Nationalism, Egypt, Diaspora, Migration, Autocephalous Orthodox Churches, Ottoman Empire, United States of America Assoc. Prof. Dr., American University of Sharjah, ORCID ID: 0000-0003-3591-741X e-mail: [email protected] Submitted: 16.09.2020, Accepted: 15.12.2020 ISA BLUMI Introduction Many men and women who lived through the dramatic transformations of the late Ottoman Empire (1878-1922) contributed their fair share to the process. As their Ottoman homelands collapsed in face of pressure from Western banks demanding payment of debts, the resulting wars transformed the state institutions that were increasingly invested in socially managing its subjects. -

ISSN2039Ͳ2117MediterraneanJournalofSocialSciencesVol.3(7)April2012 Impact of "Normale" Educational Centre A Significant Factor in the Development of Education in Albania Dr. Jani Sota Faculty of Education University "Aleksander Moisiu", Durres Abstract: The history of education has valued preciously all people involved in it and has flourished into an educational function, teaching and learning of our thorough knowledge in its institutions - such as "Normale" Educational center that played an historic role in the Albanian language. Albanian normal schools have a record of long, difficult, but also glorious path. They were the main homes for generations of teachers and also the place where it was necessary to prepare the framework for education and awareness of the nation. Albanian teachers, in different periods of history had run the greatest risk of extinction of national culture and education. They planted the sound seeds by which had brought the essence of national awareness, which in a century struggle of unparalleled trials tried to revive education, science, culture and Albania. In the history of Albania teachers and veterans of teaching, wherever they worked and acted, played the leading role, contributed as they could with their valuable works, which undoubtedly served to their students, future teachers, in raising subsequently the national level of conscience for their learning and teaching. Key words: Normal school, education, culture, teacher-students, pedagogic thinking, Albanian territory. Introduction Albanian Normal School has a record of long, difficult, but glorious path. Its purpose was to prepare the necessary framework for education and awareness of the nation. Albanian teachers, in different periods of heavy and full of vicissitudes, did valuable work in the moments and the most crucial turning points and run the greatest risks of extinction of our national culture and education. -
