  • ADEPT Political Commentaries
    ADEPT Political Commentaries October-December 2002 Bashkan elections in Gagauz Yeri October 2, 2002 Bashkan elections are scheduled in Gagauz-Yeri for October 6. The electoral campaign is characterized by mutual suspicions of falsification. In fact the upcoming elections is a way of settling the conflict arisen in January. Back then, after a control conducted by the Court of Accounts, Gagauz Yeri Parliamentary Assembly initiated the procedure of ousting the incumbent Bashkan. The initiative was supported by the President Vladimir Voronin who accused Bashkan Dumitru Croitor of embezzlement and called him a thief. Gagauz administration denied the accusations and opposed the referenda on ousting the Bashkan, which resulted in scission of the Parliamentary Assembly. Later on Dumitru Croitor and Ivan Burgugji, Chief of the Protocol Section of the PA were investigated for obstruction to referenda. In their turn, the two claimed the referendum was illegal and running counter to the Republic of Moldova laws. Domestic analysts believe those political games impaired the executive branch in the region and thwarted some extremely important investment projects in the southern region of Moldova. The investigation launched against him and his supporters determined Bashkan Croitor to resign in the summer of this year. In its turn the resignation led to early elections scheduled for October 6. One may say that the Bashkan position is disputed by the Communist Party representative Gheorghii Tabunscic, on the one hand and another five candidates on the other (Stepan Topal, Ilia Stamat, Mihail Formuzal, Gheorghii Burgudji and Constantin Tausanji), the latter stand to some extent in opposition to the Communist authorities.

  • 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 Press in the Arab World
    The Press in the Arab World a Bourdieusian critical alternative to current perspectives on the role of the media in the public sphere Hicham Tohme A thesis submitted to the Department of Politics in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy October 2014 1 Abstract The current literature on the role of media in the public sphere in general, and particularly politics, is divided among two opposing trends. The liberal/pluralists argue that media is playing a democratic role consisting of either representing public opinion and/or informing it. The critical theorists argue that media is in fact controlled by and represents elite interests. But even critical theories of the role of media in politics are driven by the belief that media ought to play a democratic and liberal role in society. Both theories therefore share a common normative understanding of what the role of media ought to be and are therefore the product of a common normative ideological framework, the liberal paradigm. This prevents them from properly framing the question of what media actually do in societies which lie beyond the scope of the experience of liberal Europe. This dissertation seeks to transcend this debate, and the liberal paradigm along with it, by arguing that, given a different historical context than the European one, the practice and ethos of media develop differently, and cannot therefore be understood from the lens of the European experience and the liberal paradigm born from within it. To do that, I use Bourdieu's theory of fields to trace the birth and evolution of the private press in Beirut and Cairo from 1858 till 1916.

  • 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.

  • Armenia” Journal (From Terrorism to Skeptical Modesty) (Migirdiç Portukalyan Ve “Armenia” Gazetesi (Terörizmden Şüpheli Bir Ilimliğa)
    MKRTICH PORTUKALIAN AND THE “ARMENIA” JOURNAL (FROM TERRORISM TO SKEPTICAL MODESTY) (MIGIRDİÇ PORTUKALYAN VE “ARMENIA” GAZETESİ (TERÖRİZMDEN ŞÜPHELİ BİR ILIMLIĞA) Prof. Dr. Jean-Louis MATTEI Abstract: Mkrtich Portukalian is one of the most significant figures in the Armenian revolutionary movement, but there is a general lack of knowledge about his activities and work. This applies to the famous journal of “Armenia” published in Marseille from 1885 to 1923 by Portukalian in Armenian. In this paper, the period under research especially entails the years 1914, 1918, 1919, 1921, 1922 and 1923. We will try to convey Portukalian’s personality by referring to various sources. In the second and third section, we will address the “Armenia” journal by frequently reminding that the revolutionist’s personality identifies with his journal. Keywords: Mkrtich Portukalian, “Armenia”, Armenian Revolutionary Movement Öz: Mıgırdiç Portukalyan Ermeni devrimci hareketindeki en önemli kişilerden birisidir, ancak faaliyetleri ve çalışmaları konusunda genel bir bilgi eksikliği dikkat çekmektedir. Nitekim bu eksiklik Marsilya’da 1885’den 1923’e kadar Porukalyan tarafından Ermenice yayınlanan “Armenia” dergisi konusunda da görülmektedir. Bu makalede söz konusu araştırma özellikle 1914, 1918, 1918, 1921, 1922 ve 1923 yıllarını kapsamaktadır. Portukalyan’ın kişiliği çeşitli kaynaklara dayanarak anlaşılmaya çalışılacaktır. İkinci ve üçüncü bölümlerde ise, sıkça devrimcinin kişiliğinin dergi ile özdeşleştiği hatırlatılarak “Armenia” dergisi incelenecektir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Mıgırdiç Portukalyan, “Armenia”, Ermeni Devrimci Hareketi Almost everyone could come to an agreement on the great significance of Mkrtich Portukalian in the Armenian revolutionary movement, but Review of Armenian Studies 65 No. 24, 2011 Prof. Dr. Jean-Louis Mattei even the Armenians do not know much regarding his personality and what he has done.

  • Albanians Have Always Respected the Rules
    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.
