    E-ISSN 2281-4612 Academic Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies Vol 4 No 2 ISSN 2281-3993 MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy July 2015 “Istitutiones Iuris” of Albanian Consuetudinary Law Dr. Eugen Pepa Head of Departement of Justice, Faculty of Political Juridical Sciences, University “AleksanderMoisiu”, Durrës, Albania Email: [email protected] Doi:10.5901/ajis.2015.v4n2p337 Abstract The custom is among the sources of law, definitely, the most distant in time. Our legal tradition has been transmitted orally from generation to generation through the centuries and it bares these language elements that are considered fundamental for our people’s identity. Our society was shaped over the centuries under secular foreign occupation, and in full lack of a state authority to be represented with. Despite this, the juridical oral tradition and this kind of peculiar language managed to cross the millennia through its customs, creating and cultivating social and juridical institutions which have served to shape a collective conscience that made it possible for the modern state to be founded. Our analysis will concentrate principally in the representative values of the social belongings, creating the legal basis of the Albanian ethos and ethnos, which are always served as an autochthonous legal source. This might dispatch social justice values and human dignity. This analysis deepens its focus mainly in the strongholds of the common law; highlighting those social and legal institutions, that on our point of view have had the greatest influence in the creation of our national consciousness. Keywords: common law, legal tradition, society, institution etc. Il diritto consuetudinario è fonte giuridica universalmente presente fin dai primordi della storia umana.

  • CMP Teaching Plan – Studio Demo Lesson Prepared by Kathleen Otterson June 2010
    CMP Teaching Plan – Studio Demo Lesson Prepared by Kathleen Otterson June 2010 Aria: È amore un ladroncello, from Cosí fan tutte (1790) Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) Background Information: Written just a few years before his death, Mozart’s opera Cosí fan tutte (“Thus do they all”) is an opera buffa with the libretto by Lorenzo da Ponte – also Mozart’s collaborator for Don Giovanni and Le Nozze di Figaro. It is believed that Mozart wrote Cosí at the suggestion of Emperor Joseph II, after the latter’s court composer, Antonio Salieri, broke off composition of the work because of its risqué themes. Cosí fan tutte had its first performance in Vienna on January 26, 1790, and has become a staple of the repertoire in opera houses around the world. The main theme of the opera is fiancée-swapping – an popular plot device then and now. Da Ponte’s plot revolves around two sisters – Fiordiligi and Dorabella – and their sweethearts, Guglielmo and Ferrando. The maid, Despina and the Old Philosopher (Don Alfonso) also figure prominently. The scene is Naples in the 18th century. Don Alfonso, claiming that all women are fickle in matters of love (thus the title of the opera), wagers with Ferrando and Guglielmo that within a day’s time, he can prove that even their devoted sweethearts might be unfaithful to them. The three devise a plan in which the men will pretend that they have been called off to war, only to return, disguised as Albanians, and attempt to seduce each other’s sweetheart. At first the sisters resist the advances of their disguised lovers, but with the encouragement of Despina (who is in cahoots with the men), they soon give in.

  • L'albania Delle Donne. Progredire Gli Studi Relativi a Un Paese Che, Pur Essendo Nel Cuore Dell’Europa, È Rimasto a Lungo Ai Margini Della Conoscenza Generale

Immagini e studi albanesi nella letteratura di viaggio femminile (1864-1953) Abstract Female travel literature about Albania begins early, is rich in outstanding works, and it is just waiting to be known and appreciated as it deserves. In fact, over the last hundred and fifty years, Albanian culture, from Kosovo to Epirus to Macedonia to Montenegro, attracted and continues to attract more and more the attention of many female writers, artists and professional researchers who contributed to the advancement of studies related to a country that, despite being in the very heart of Europe, has long remained on the fringes of general knowledge. However, differently from what happened to their male counterparts, female writing about Albania is still scarcely known. This article is aimed to delineate a first and far from exhaustive survey of female travel literature about Albanian culture, through case studies selected according to different types of representation. The time frame taken into account goes from 1864 - when they were published two British travel books, namely The Eastern Shores of the Adriatic of Emily Anne Beaufort, and Through Macedonia to the Albanian Lakes of Mary Adelaide Walker - to 1953, when it appeared the German edition of the Albanian customary code of laws (also known as Kanun), translated by Marie Amelie von Godin.

As originally conceived and approved, the Albanian opera- tion had as a minimum objective the development of the internal conflict in Alpania sufficient to reduce materially the ability of Albania to sup- port:treek guerrillas. The maximum objectivelg the overthrow of the present Hoxha regime. 2. Since the initiation of the Albanian operation and the formulation of the objectives, two major changes bearing on the operation and the objectives have occured. The first is the cessat:.Dn, for the time being: at least, of guerrilla warfare in 2reece, and the second the intensification of pressure from the Communists upon the Tito regime together with the corresponding shift in US policy toward Tito directed to maintaining the regime as a stumbling block to future Soviet expansionist designs. 3. UP to 6 December 1949, the Albanian operation was a joint US- British undertaking. On 6 September the Department of State and the British Foreign Office agreed that the maximum ob - ectiye was to be c 4,4/3 temporarily abandoned_as a result 1 at that time.

  • A Brief Historical, Political and Social Reconstruction of Albania in the Early Twentieth Century
    ISSN 2411-9563 (Print) European Journal of Social Sciences September-December 2014 ISSN 2312-8429 (Online) Education and Research Volume 1, Issue 2 A brief Historical, Political and Social Reconstruction of Albania in the Early Twentieth Century Dr. Sokol Pacukaj Aleksander Moisiu University Email: [email protected] Abstract The purpose of this article is to bring to the attention of researchers the fundamental aspects of the history of the Albanian people after the First World War and especially the 20s. After the independence from the Ottoman Empire in 1913, Albania began the challenges of building a nation from all points of view, political, economic, social, cultural etc. This article describes and analyzes these issues from a brief historical reconstruction from the ancient Illyrians to King Ahmet Zog. The methodology used in this article is qualitative and analytical, with various researches in the Archives of the Italian Army and the Central State in Albania. As a result of this research emerges how fundamental was the role of Italy in those years both from the political and especially economic point of view. Italy had the primacy of the import-export business with the small Balkan state. This primacy Italy still holds today by being the first trade partner. Keywords: Albania, Empire, Kanun, Skenderbej, Indipendence, Italy 1. Introduzione Il saggio che segue è una ricostruzione dei vari aspetti della storia albanese a partire dagli Illiri sino a giungere alla proclamazione della monarchia di Re Zog I, nel 1928; una ricostruzione che non trascura l’aspetto economico e con uno sguardo interessante sui dati demografici inerenti al popolo albanese e alle sue caratteristiche socio-culturali.
