  • Business Plan for 2020
    INFRAKOS – Business Plan 2020 Introduction The business plan of 2019 conceived by INFRAKOS, despite major challenges during all the year, has almost been fully realized. Therefore, thanks to our commitments, the action plan outlined from the business plan has been successfully implemented. Kosovo Railway Network managed by INFRAKOS, through which is transported certain number of passengers and goods safely and efficiently, thanks to our commitments was a successful story during the year 2019. In addition to providing services for railway operator TRAINKOS and RAILTRANS, we made strenuous efforts for providing real estate services and other services to our customers. Therefore, as a result of these commitments satisfaction of our customers has been and remains at relatively high levels. This success brings with it two important issues: challenges and opportunities. We must continue to enhance customer satisfaction by meeting the rising demand, but always keeping the right balance between capacity, performance and costs. For this we have a responsibility to continue our work with greater efficiency towards the modernization of the rail network and the financial sustainability of the company. Our challenges have been and remain large, while our options were, and unfortunately still remain small. We would like that our Business Plan would be fully realized because such as it is will enable the development of the railway network, understood as part of an existing reality in a modest way by not asking the impossible. For this reason we need to have greater support of responsible institutions in the realization of our projects, projects that are in the good of our country.

    The Kosovar wine cluster: A booster for regional development? Gajo M. VANKA1, Wim J.M. HEIJMAN2 1Department of Social Sciences, Economics of Consumers and Households Group, Wageningen University, Wageningen, the Netherlands 2Department of Social Sciences, Agricultural Economics and Rural Policy Group, Wageningen University, Wageningen, the Netherlands Abstract: Kosovo is an economy in transition with a high unemployment, a young population and structural problems. Clusters could be considered as an appropriate approach to develop the region. Th is paper deals with the economic pro- spects of the Kosovar wine cluster, its current opportunities and the introduction of new approaches. Th e analysis was based on the Porter’s innovation theory and the diamond model. Th e Kosovar wine sector could be a promising example for the future cluster development. Wine has a long history in Kosovo although wine consumption is not widespread. Th is paper presents the main problems and opportunities within this sector, describing its structural changes and current developments. Th e study aims to introduce its readers to the potential that the cluster development can off er as well as to understand the local circumstances. Its main focus is therefore to introduce the advantages and opportunities that clusters could bring to this sector, considering the three pillars of sustainable development, namely economic growth, environmen- tal and social development, and achieving competitiveness. Key words: agribusiness sector, business clusters, competitiveness, diamond model, Kosovo, Porter’s innovation theory, Serbia, sustainable development, wine. This research examines sustainable development winemaking all makes this sector attractive to foreign in Kosovo by focusing on the interaction between agencies and investors.

  • Kosovo Economy & Society After 1945
    Conflict Studies Research Centre G103 Kosovo Economy & Society After 1945 Some Observations James Pettifer This paper argues that many of the dilemmas the international community is facing in Kosovo have their origins in the immediate post-1945 period, and that lack of understanding of the nature of Kosovo society under communism and the Kosovo economy under Titoism is hampering the international community in governing Kosovo today. In the current major political and military conflict in Kosovo which culminated in the NATO bombing campaign, refugee exodus and subsequent withdrawal of Yugoslav troops and police from Kosovo in June 1999, the recent history of Kosovo has tended to be discussed from the period of the accession to power of Slobodan Milosevic in the late 1980s, and in more or less exclusively political terms. The 1974 Constitution, with its democratisation proposals, is usually about the limit of most non-Kosovars’ historical perspective. Yet in a recent British television interview the US Balkan negotiator Richard Holbrooke made the interesting revelation that in the latter stages of the Febuary 1999 negotiations before the NATO campaign began, it was events in Kosovo in 1946 that were at the forefront of Slobodan Milosevic’s mind.1 The violence that Milosevic was recalling was part of a much wider and deeper political crisis that occurred in Kosovo after World War II that has been little understood in the West. It is nevertheless still of seminal importance is assessing options for the future of Kosovo. Thousands of ethnic Albanians rose in revolt against the Tito government and disturbances continued in Kosovo for the next few years.

They help attract investments and provide opportunities for businesses and people including youth. In the Western Balkans, they contribute to good neighbourly relations. Our connectivity agenda therefore aims to improve links within the Western Balkans as well as between the region and the EU.
