    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.

    Humanitarian Law Center Research, Dokumentation and Memory Fate of the Missing Albanians in Kosovo The report was composed on the basis of the statements given by witnesses and family members of the missing persons, data and observations of the Humanitarian Law Center (HLC) Monitors who regularly followed the exhumation and autopsies of the bodies found in the mass graves in Serbia, as well as data on bodies that were identified and handed over, received from the families or Belgrade War Crimes Chamber Investigative Judge who signs the Record on Identified Mortal Remains Hand Over. According to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) information, missing persons’ family members [Albanians, Serbs, Montenegrins, Bosniacs, Roma, Egyptians, and Ashkalis] reported to this organization disappearance of 5,950 persons in relation to the armed conflicts in Kosovo. Meanwhile, the fate of 3,462 persons has been revealed and there were 2,488 persons left on the List of the Missing Persons prepared by ICRC by 15 November 2005. According to the HLC’s information, there are 1,785 missing Albanians, 538 Serbs, and 165 persons of other nationalities. Until 15 November 2005, the Republic of Serbia handed over 615 identified Albanian bodies and 14 mortuary bags with unidentified mortal remains to the UNMIK Office for Missing Persons and Forensics [OMPF] and three bodies to the US authorities since those bodies found in the mass graves in Serbia belonged to the US citizens. Serbian Ministry of Interiors [MUP] formed the concealed mass graves in Serbia in order to conceal traces of war crimes committed in Kosovo.

Zbog toga {to su na{a otkri}a stekla ugled pouzdano- sti i pravovremenosti, ona predstavljaju nezaobilazan izvor po- dataka za sve one koji se bave ljudskim pravima. Bavimo se povredama ljudskih prava bez obzira na politi~ko ure|enje dr`ava, geopoliti~ku pripadnost i etni~ko ili versko ube|enje stanovni{tva. Human Rights Watch brani slobodu mi{ljenja i iz- ra`avanja, pravo na pravedno su|enje i jednaka prava na za{titu pred zakonom, i zala`e se za sna`no civilno dru{tvo; dokumen- tujemo i razotkrivamo ubistva, nestanke, mu~enja, proizvoljna hap{enja, diskriminacije i druge povrede me|unarodno priznatih ljudskih prava. Na{ cilj je da se vlasti smatraju odgovornima uko- liko povrede prava svojih gra|ana. Human Rights Watch je nastao 1978. godine, kada su osno- vana odeljenja za Evropu i Centralnu Aziju ({to je tada ~inilo Helsinki Watch). Danas postoje odeljenja koja su zadu`ena za Afriku, Severnu i Ju`nu Ameriku, Aziju i Bliski istok. Pored toga, HRW ima i tri tematska odeljenja koja se bave naoru`anjem, de- ~ijim i `enskim pravima. Kancelarije su u Njujorku, Va{ingtonu, Los An|elesu, Londonu, Briselu, Moskvi, Du{anbeu i Bangkoku.
