Next estimation (for 2012) standard which is required to be carried out every year will be carried out up to mid- 2013. by offi cial statistical institutions of a country. This is due to the fact that in the period between two censuses (period of ten years) in a country occur signifi cant population, municipality or settlement changes. Kosovo Agency of Statistics (KAS) has estimated the population size at country level on annual basis and then this fi gure has been used as basic indicator for analyses and other planning. Annual statistical data on population (demography) are fundamental for the research and determination of a wide range of analyses, especially those with signifi cant importance related to social and economic issues at certain levels: municipal, national and regional. Population statistics are an important denominator and indicator for policymakers, analysts, researchers and various data users. The data on population constitute the basic estimating component of national accounts, employment and other socio-economic issues.

  • In Both Pristina and Prizren I Worked with Albanians and US Staff
    In both Pristina and Prizren I worked with Albanians and US staff. We had no contact with Serbs; they lived in small enclaves protected by KFOR. When a man walking down the main street of Pristina was suspected of being a Serb he was pounced on by a mob and killed. When I asked one of my Albanian colleagues about this hatred of Serbs he said: ‘Frank, if you saw a couple of Serbs cutting your friend to pieces with a chainsaw I think you would also hate them’. The Albanians craved recognition of their identity and their culture. They are proud of their language and literature, their music and folklore. For 500 years they were ruled by the Ottoman Empire, and more recently by the Serbs. Under Serb rule Albanians were allowed to walk on only one side of the main street in Pristina. In many cases Serb and Albanian children used to enter primary school through the same main gate. Once inside the gate the Serb children turned right into classrooms where they were taught a Serb curriculum by Serb teachers speaking the Serb language. The Albanian children turned left into other classrooms where they received an Albanian education. This was called integrated education. I was reminded a couple of times that this was not too different from the Catholic- Protestant divide in education in Northern Ireland. With the departure of the Serb forces in June 1999 the Albanians celebrated international recognition of their identity. This soon turned sour when some NGO and UNMIK staff seemed to see the Albanians as some kind of second class citizens.

  • Balsa Djurié Plato, Plutarch and the Sibyl in the Fresco Decoration of the Episcopal Church of the Virgin Ljeviska in Prizren
    Balsa Djurié Plato, Plutarch and the Sibyl in the Fresco Decoration of the Episcopal Church of the Virgin Ljeviska in Prizren The picturesque town of Prizren, near the border of Kosovo, Albania and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, is home to one of the most important buildings of Serbian medieval art - the cathedra! of Prizren dedicated to the Virgin Ljeviska. The history of the Serbian Diocese of Prizren, which the cathedra! of the Virgin Ljeviska represents, starts with the conquest of the town from the Byzantines around 1210 and the replacement of the Greek bishop with a Serbian bishop in 1219. The present five-domed church, with its two narthexes, belt tower, and several chapels [Fig. 27], is the result of reconstruction in 1306/1307 under king Milutin, on the foundations of an earlier Byzantine basilica. 1 The walls of the church were painted three times: between 1220 and 1230,2 when a roof was put over the ruined basilica; around 1310, during the reign of king Milutin; 3 and again when the Turks turned the church into a mosque [Fig. 28] at a date that has yet to be established. 4 That the walls were decorated at all was discovered completely by accident in the early twentieth century. During the First Balkan War at the end of 1912 the Serbian army entered Prizren. One of the officers, an architect, noticed under the cracked white paint in what was at that time the mosque, some images of saints. 5 Between the Great Wars the minaret was removed and the church again looked as it had in the past.
