  • THE MOUNTAIN VILLAGE of RAZËM Figure II-0.1 – Razëm on the Map of Albania
    PART II THE MOUNTAIN VILLAGE OF RAZËM Figure II-0.1 – Razëm on the map of Albania. CHAPTER II.0 General overview Villages Administrative Administrative Municipality Region Units Offices Vrith-Razëm Shkrel Koplik Malësi e Madhe Shkodër Razëm is a hamlet of the mountain village of Vrith, which is only 4 km away (Fig. II-0.1). After the administrative reform in 2015, Vrith became part of Malësi e Madhe, the northernmost of the Albanian municipalities and as such, a border place. This pe- culiar geographic location – mountainous isolation on the one hand, and the constant threat from neighbouring nations on the other – also resulted in the creation and de- velopment of specific social and cultural phenomena. Two examples worth mention- ing are the traditional rhapsodic chants based on the Eposi i Kreshnikëve1 (a cultural heritage of inestimable value) and the celebrated collection of customary laws gath- ered in the Kanun code2. Razëm lies within the Regional Natural Park of Shkrel (established as a protected area in 2014) and is considered the ‘gateway’ to the Western Albanian Alps. Together with the villages of Reç e Bogë, Razëm forms a triad of great interest from the point of view of tourism (Figs. II-0.2 and II-0.3). The Alpine area on which it stands is characterised by a vast network of trails and a series of high-altitude pastures (bjeshkë) with numerous mountain hut settlements 1 The chants of the oral tradition collected in the Epos narrate stories inspired by the wars against the enemies who came from beyond the Serbian border.

For instance, the allocation of health and social care funding, housing, roads, water and sewerage and the provision and maintenance of schools have all distinctive aspects in urban and rural areas. Employment for urban and rural population has different features as well. In Albania, as in most other countries, it is difficult to distinguish exactly the urban population from the rural one. Even though not always reflecting what is certainly urban or rural, in Albania, the administrative definition based on the law is used also for statistical purposes. However, the present availability of small-area data derived from the 2011 population and housing census covering the entire territory of the country, has made possible an attempt to introduce also in Albania new definitions and classifications of urban and rural areas for statistical purposes.

The attempt to identify this employment link brings some new fact in the context of this cooperation, over a period of time from 1850 to 1912, Albanian Declaration of Independence. Based on the time's statics, various writings,archival materials and documents to Vienna's archive, we are trying to identify the values of this contribution in education, in functioning and spreading of schools and allowing the Albanian language in schools that held the function on the basis of this contribution. It is important to be noted that these schools played an important role not only in the education of the new generation, but soon Shkodra turns into an important educational centre. Key words: Austrian-Hungarian Empire, contribution, operation, Albanian language, clerical schools. 1. Introduction In the frame early relationship between Albanian and Austria, Shkodra caught the eyes, as a permanent cradle of knowledge, an island of patriotism, a city shown up for its cultures and traditions. Even though, the relations between them have had a long and early tradition, many documents, oral information, official statistics (Turkish, Austrian, and / or Italian), different articles published so far certify the Austrian-Hungarian contribution, especially in development of education.
