As soldiers whose primary task it is to ensure a safe and secure environment in whatever theatre we may be operating in, it is paramount that all of us have an understanding of what the threat is and what can be done to counter it. First of all, it has to be acknowledged that the threat is real. For one to assume that the potential capacity for violent extremism does not exist in any of our home nations or in the countries where we may deploy, is probably being naive to say the least. So the potential threat is out there! We have to accept that. It is important to understand that violent extremism is not limited to persons of any particular age, sex, group or community. In fact it is the younger person who is more vulnerable to the dangers of being recruited by extremist or terrorist groups. Defi nition: Violent extremism refers to the beliefs and actions of people who support or use ideological- motivated violence to achieve radical ideological, religious or political views. Violent extremist views can be exhibited along a range of issues, including, politics, religion and gender relations. Alternative Defi nition: Violent Extremism can also be defi ned as “when you do not allow for a diff erent point of view; when you hold your own views as being quite exclusive, when you don’t allow for the possibility of diff erence and when you want to impose this view on others using violence if necessary. Modern challenges: Many countries today are faced with the challenges of not being able to control their citizen’s from being drawn by extremist organisations to travel abroad to take part in the various campaigns that are currently taking place particularly in the middle east. Many of these “foreign fi ghters” are young venerable adults who have been misguided and infl uenced along the wrong path. How can these challenges be addressed? And what should we look out for when trying to understand the early warning signs of some showing tendencies towards one of these dangerous organisations. Early warning signs: • Sudden break with family and long-standing friendships. • Sudden drop-out of school and confl icts with school. • Change in behaviour, relating to food, clothing, language and fi nances. • Changes in attitudes and behaviour towards others; refusal to interact socially, signs of withdrawal and isolation. • Regular viewing of internet sites and participation in social media networks that condone radical or extremist views. • Reference to apocalyptic and conspiracy theories. What causes young people to become involved in extremism and radicalisation? An independent Public opinion survey, conducted in a particular European city by a legitimate company on 6 KFOR CHRONICLECHRONICLE 0101/2017/2017 VIOLENT EXTREMISM 1000 persons of both sexes, ranging in age from 18 to 55 has produced the undermentioned fi ndings/results: To why young people get involved in these organisations. • Unemployment • Low level of education • Globalisation • Targeting of a group that is easier to manipulate Th e above are the possible reasons for persons becoming involved and the below graph shows some other reasons or channels where people are led astray.

  • Level of Development and Pretection of Economic Competition in Kosovo-Case Study Gjilan Region
    ISSN: 2065-0175 ŒCONOMICA Level of Development and Pretection of Economic Competition in Kosovo-Case Study Gjilan Region Gani Asllani1, Bedri Statovci3 Abstract: This paper investigates development and protection of economic competition in Kosovo focusing on the analysis of the level of competition in the Gjilan region. The paper deals with the legislative aspect of competition, the sensitive sectors (banks, insurance, gas stations and pharmacies) where the competitions is damaged and finally are presented the measures on improvement based on the EU practices. Like other economies in transition, the economy in Kosovo the activity for protection of competition is faced with many challenges. Moreover, these challenges result from the fact that Kosovo was the last country in South-eastern Europe to start implementing the principles of a free market economy after 1999. Through a case study, it is attempted to give a realistic picture of the level of competition development, where competition is undermined, general business knowledge about the functioning and enforcement of the law on competition protection, and concrete measures to be taken in order for competition to function based on the rules of the market economy. Keywords: Market economy; economic competition; monopoles; abuse of dominance position JEL Classification: F12 1. Introduction The creation of a market economy and the free operation of market mechanisms is an important objective for sustainable economic development. The realization of this objective imposes the need for decision-makers to create such economic policies adapted to adequate legislation that will impact economic growth through a competitive market on the one hand and on the other hand eliminate the behavior that harms the free market.

    International Journal of Economics and Business Administration Volume VII, Issue 2, 2019 pp. 39-49 Economic Competition in Kosovo: An Empirical Analysis Submitted 2/12/18, 1st revision 18/1/19, 2nd revision 20/2/19 accepted 26/3/19 Gani Asllani1, Jonathan Spiteri2, Simon Grima3 Abstract: Purpose: With this article we aim to lay out the results of an investigation on the development and protection of economic competition in Kosovo, focusing specifically on the analysis of the level of competition in the Gjilan region. We deal with the legislative aspects of the competition in the sensitive sectors (banks, insurance, gas stations and pharmacies) where the competition is damaged and present the measures for improvement based on the EU practices. Design/Methodology/Approach: The used method is to lay out a realistic picture of (1) the level of competition development, (2) the areas where competition is undermined, (3) the general business knowledge about the functioning and enforcement of the law on competition protection, and (4) the concrete measures to be taken in order for competition to function based on the rules of the market economy. Findings: Results show that on average, respondents believe that their sector is relatively well-regulated and competitive, although there are clear areas of improvement, notably with regards to the difficulties encountered when doing business, the effectiveness of Kosovo’s existing legislative framework and the existence of monopoly power within most sectors. Practical Implications: The role of competition authorities in curbing anti-competitive practices needs strengthening, as attested by the results obtained, and more needs to be done when it comes to tackling collusive business practices, particularly among pharmacies and banks.

  • OSCE Mission in Kosovo the Treatment of Minorities by the Judicial
    Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe OSCE Mission in Kosovo Background Report The treatment of minorities by the judicial system Introduction This report focuses on the right to equality before the law as relates to proceedings monitored by the Legal System Monitoring Section (LSMS) from the beginning of its monitoring activity on 18 August 1999 until 27 March 2000. Since most District Court trials held thus far have involved Kosovo Albanian defendants and Kosovo Albanian victims, this report will focus primarily on two issues: (1) The potential for disparate treatment of ethnic groups during pre- trial detention hearings; and (2) The difficulty of securing defence counsel, particularly for Kosovo Serbs.i Background The aggravated violations of human rights that occurred during the war have put a heavy burden on those who are in charge of re-establishing a democratic and multiethnic society. Since the beginning of its mandate, UNMIK has been confronted by many challenges, including the protection and promotion of human rights based on the universal principles of tolerance and freedom. Ethnic violence, harassment, assault, larceny and eviction have led to an increased feeling of isolation and insecurity amongst ethnic groups. Despite the continuous flight of members of ethnic communities, mostly Kosovo Serbs and Roma,ii a number of them remained behind living mainly in concentrated areas spread out in the province. These individuals face numerous obstacles; economic and social isolation, insecurity, and difficult access to public services. In pursuing its mandate, the OSCE mission states that it: “will be guided by the importance of bringing about mutual respect and reconciliation among all ethnic groups in Kosovo, and of establishing a viable multiethnic society, where the rights of each citizen are fully and equally respected.”iii In this respect, the performance of the judicial system is crucial.

  • Annual Report 2012
    2012 on 7th of June 2013 ANNUAL REPORT 2012 FOREWORD Dear all, You have in front of you the Energy Regulatory Office’s Annual Report 2012, structured in line with Article 9 of the Law on Energy Regulator, for submission to the Assembly of the Republic of Kosovo for information, review and approval. The report presents an overview of activities that were carried out as well as main achievements of ERO and energy sector during the calendar year 2012. The report contains information on the most important events on the energy market, the energy tariffs review, the financial report of ERO, as well as data on regulated activities in the energy sector of the Republic of Kosovo. During 2012 have been harmonized all existing licenses for energy activities based on harmonization of the ERO secondary legislation. The whole process has been developed in consultation with third parties and the public. The harmonized and finalized licenses have been approved by the Board of ERO in public hearings. The insufficiency of the existing generation capacities to meet the supply demands and the need for investments in the energy sector in Kosovo requires initiation of energy sector restructuring through liberalization of the market and growth of competition in the market of electricity. In order to achieve these objectives, the development of Market Design is in the process of finalization, expected to be approved by the ERO very soon. The Government of Kosovo is in the process of finalizing the privatization of distribution and supply, which are presently within KEK. New investor, based on the tendering package is expected to undertake the responsibility on distribution and supply in the beginning of May 2013.
