Wien, 2009 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 301 297 Studienrichtung lt. Studienblatt: Publizistik- und Kommunikationswissenschaft Betreuer: Ao.Univ.-Prof. Dr. Fritz (Friedrich) Hausjell II „Der höchste Lohn für unsere Bemühungen ist nicht das, was wir dafür bekommen, sondern das, was wir dadurch werden.“ John Ruskin (1819-1900) III IV Danksagung Dankbar bin ich dafür, dass ich dankbar sein kann! In vorliegender Arbeit sind viele Augenblicke der Dankbarkeit und schöne Erinnerungen eingewebt, die diese Zeit und diesen Prozess begleitet haben. Dankbarkeit zeigen, geschieht als Reaktion – „danke“ sagen, ist meist anerzogen und folgt Automatismen. Wenn aber „danke“ in Worte gefasst und öffentlich zelebriert werden soll, dann wird das „Danke-sagen“ ein Augenblick des Innehaltens und ein besonderes Erlebnis, zumindest für den Verfasser. Meinen Eltern, die mir und meinen Geschwistern, in schweren Zeiten, nach ihren Möglichkeiten, eine Zukunft ermöglicht haben, die nicht selbstverständlich war, möchte ich besonders danken und Respekt zollen. Bedanken will ich mich bei meinen lieben Geschwistern, dafür dass sie mein Leben bereichern und mich während dieser Arbeit unterstützt haben, jede/r auf ihre/seiner Weise. Namentlich möchte ich mich noch bei Fr. Ilse Brunnauer-Schürl, für ihre nette und herzliche Fürsorge, bedanken! Meinen Freunden, hier namentlich unsichtbar, gebührt ebenfalls meine tiefe Dankbarkeit! Ein ganz besonderer Dank gilt meinem Betreuer - Ao.Univ.Prof. Dr. Fritz Hausjell! Er war stets hilfsbereit, freundlich und verständnisvoll! Danke!

  • Student Movements: 1968, 1981 and 1997 the Impact Of
    Student Movements: 1968, 1981 and 1997 The impact of students in mobilizing society to chant for the Republic of Kosovo Atdhe Hetemi Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of East European Languages and Cultures Supervisor Prof. dr. Rozita Dimova Department of East European Languages and Cultures Dean Prof. dr. Gita Deneckere Rector Prof. dr. Rik Van de Walle October 2019 i English Summary This dissertation examines the motives and central visions of three student demonstrations, each taking place within different historical and political contexts and each organized by a different generation of Kosovo Albanian students. The years 1968, 1981 and 1997 witnessed a proliferation of student mobilizations as collective responses demanding more national rights for Albanians in Kosovo. I argue that the students' main vision in all three movements was the political independence of Kosovo. Given the complexity of the students' goal, my analysis focuses on the influence and reactions of domestic and foreign powers vis-à-vis the University of Prishtina (hereafter UP), the students and their movements. Fueled by their desire for freedom from Serbian hegemony, the students played a central role in "preserving" and passing from one generation to the next the vision of "Republic" status for Kosovo. Kosova Republikë or the Republic of Kosovo (hereafter RK) status was a demand of all three student demonstrations, but the students' impact on state creation has generally been underestimated by politicians and public figures. Thus, the primary purpose of this study is to unearth the various and hitherto unknown or hidden roles of higher education – then the UP – and its students in shaping Kosovo's recent history.

This case includes territories inhabited by Albanians (who, being the majority of the Islamic faith, were considered part of the Muslim population in the Balkan Peninsula). These anti-Albanian interests, initially through policies, programs and methods, prepared the national and the international opinion about the annihilation and colonization intentions on the territories inhabited by Albanians, especially in Kosovo. In addition to this, in the historical retrospect, Albanians during the XIX-XX centuries faced orthodox political calls for the creation of a state with Serbian orientation in the territories of the former Serbian king Car Dushani (1331-1355), with clear intentions for a Great Serbia to be formed (all Slavs in one state) for all South Slavs, where Serbia would have the leading role.

From ​ a good childhood, so to say, from a space that we had as children at that time and in high school. The situation started getting worse, considering the situation in the entire former Yugoslavia, of course it also affected Kosovo. And to be honest, I remember it was I think the fourth year of high school when the miners isolated themselves in Mitrovica at that time. I remember we were in the fourth year of high school and the students were protesting in solidarity with the miners. They didn’t let us enter because we weren’t students, and we did whatever we could in order to enter the 25 May hall, the current 1 October, of that time.

  • Albanian Language Management and the Generation of Kosovo Albanian National Identity Since 1945
    ALBANIAN LANGUAGE MANAGEMENT AND THE GENERATION OF KOSOVO ALBANIAN NATIONAL IDENTITY SINCE 1945 JUSTIN GREGORY HAMILTON ELLIOTT University College London Doctor of Philosophy 2017 I, Justin Gregory Hamilton Elliott, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 ABSTRACT This thesis is about the development of a national identity through the means of language, both as a terrain and a vehicle. This thesis argues the modern intellectuals’ sense of moral mission in colonial nation-building was a response to exogenous modernization, and involved imagining the people as Albanians separated from Albania. This was most clearly encapsulated in the adoption of the same standard language as Albania in 1968 and the intellectuals’ subsequent management and reaction to external constraint, which was imposed in such a way as to prove counterproductive and enhance the intellectuals’ status still further. Yet, because there are limits to the way in which imagination of a society can conflict with reality, the standard language has failed to bring political or linguistic unity. In arguing this, the thesis provides a new interpretation of the development of Kosovo Albanian national identity. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 4 Chapter One How the Modern Kosovo Albanian intellectual 57 became possible Chapter Two Writing as they hear: the Standardization of 95 Albanian in the People’s Republic of Albania Chapter Three Standard Albanian
