    ISSN: 2560-1601 Vol. 39, No. 1 (Al) April 2021 Albania political briefing: A peculiar electoral campaign Marsela Musabelliu 1052 Budapest Petőfi Sándor utca 11. +36 1 5858 690 Kiadó: Kína-KKE Intézet Nonprofit Kft. [email protected] Szerkesztésért felelős személy: CHen Xin Kiadásért felelős személy: Huang Ping china-cee.eu 2017/01 A peculiar electoral campaign Summary Tensions are running high in the political scene in Albania for the next general election to be held on April 25th. The very way of doing politics has adapted to the pandemic reality and the political narrative has shifted in scope and objectives. This briefing is an overview of how the electoral campaign is reflecting the Albanian reality on the ground and where do the main actors stand. Introduction As of March 25th the electoral campaign officially started in Albania. The contenders for the “throne” of power are displaying their agendas and their intention for the future of the country, while mobilizing their base at the maximum. Commitments, assurances, pledges, promises - Albanians have heard them all. This is the time when everything seems to be focused on the people. Once every four years, politicians become humble and listen to the citizens, for the sake of one more vote. Predominant features of the campaign As never before the electoral campaign in Albania in 2021 is particular in many ways. Due to the pandemic restriction on group gatherings and curfew after 8 p.m., there is less intensity. Yet, the logistics of it all are not the main component of this abnormal campaign.

  • Edi Rama and Tirana, Albania, 2000-2010
    Tumi Makgetla Innovations for Successful Societies A NEW FACE FOR A TIRED CITY: EDI RAMA AND TIRANA, ALBANIA, 2000-2010 SYNOPSIS When Edi Rama became mayor of Tirana in 2000, he confronted a population that was disillusioned with the way democracy had played out in the capital city. Albania had sunk into a political morass after a brief period of cheer that followed the eastern European country’s emergence in the early 1990s from decades of isolation under a Marxist- Leninist dictatorship. But change was in the air at the start of the millennium, as national reforms began with the support of a forward-thinking prime minister. Seizing the moment, Rama aimed to restore public confidence in government by building an administration based on professionalism rather than political connections, sprucing up the drab city, improving services, encouraging citizen complaints and leading open discussions on Tirana’s future. He repaired city hall, cleared out public spaces, painted colorless communist-era apartment buildings in bright hues and planted thousands of trees. Although his reforms lost momentum after Albania’s leadership changed and he became more deeply involved in national affairs, Rama’s accomplishments as mayor demonstrated the value of responsive, participatory government in regaining citizen support and attacking entrenched municipal problems. Tumi Makgetla drafted this policy note on the basis of interviews conducted in Tirana, Albania, in June 2010. INTRODUCTION Interwoven were shots of Rama singing from a “This is our Tirana—Tirana of podium in a bright purple vest. contradictions,” the mayor of Tirana, Edi Rama, Rama’s frankness, his youthful appeal and rapped in a campaign music video with a his novel approach marked him as unusual in popular Albanian hip-hop group, West Side Albanian politics.

Juni 2011 15:36:31 GMT+02:00 An: [email protected] Why everyone is sick of #Albania the American Friend | June 17, 2011 at 9:36 am | Tags: Albania, Central Election Commission, Corruption, Democracy, Edi Rama, Elections, Lulzim Basha, Sali Berisha, Socialist Party | Categories: Albania, Democracy, Edi Rama | URL: http://wp.me/p1lKg3-sD Jun 14th 2011, 16:25 by T.J. | TIRANA RUNNING into a senior European Union official recently, I mentioned I was going to Albania. He muttered something I cannot repeat here and walked off, apparently irritated even by the mention of the country’s name. You can understand why. On May 8th the country voted in municipal elections. Over a month later we still don’t know who the mayor of Tirana is. If Albanians can’t even hold a local vote without the risk of violent disruption, think Eurocrats, they should not expect any love from Brussels. Edith Harxhi, Albania's deputy foreign minister, concurs. “For me it is extremely depressing,” she says. “The election was the best we have had so far, and there were only minor problems.” (The opposition Socialists would not agree with this rosy assessment.) The net result, says Ms Harxhi, is that “EU integration has stopped for now.” Here is a simplified summary of what happened in Tirana. People in the Albanian capital voted in four separate elections: city mayor, city council, and the same again for their own part of town.

  • Prime Minister Edi Rama Takes Total Control in Albania, but Who Can Keep Him in Check?
    Prime Minister Edi Rama takes total control in Albania, but who can keep him in check? blogs.lse.ac.uk/europpblog/2017/06/30/edi-rama-takes-control-albania/ 30/06/2017 Albania held parliamentary elections on 25 June, with the ruling Socialist Party led by Edi Rama winning a majority of seats. Max Fras gives his take on the outcome, arguing that while Rama’s victory will be a positive development for Albania’s EU accession aspirations, his now dominant position could pose a risk to the country’s democratisation process. After parliamentary elections in Albania on 25 June , the Socialist Party (PS) took power with an outright majority and the ability to form a single-party government – a development the country has not seen since 2001. The election presents a unique opportunity for a country that has been marred by political divisions and coalition in-fighting to pursue an ambitious agenda of reform and European integration. On the other hand, the region’s recent history abounds with ‘strong and stable’ leaders that squandered their mandate away through autocratic, anti-democratic and otherwise ill-conceived policies and actions – Macedonia’s Nikola Gruevski, Serbia’s Boris Tadic and Albania’s own Sali Berisha are only a few examples. Edi Rama, a former artist and Tirana mayor, speaks about his signature architectonic intervention in the Albanian capital – the multi-coloured houses. Credits: TEDxThessaloniki (CC BY-NC 2.0) The opportunity for reform will only be realised if the new Albanian government and its charismatic prime minister, Edi Rama, are kept in check by institutions such as the judiciary and executive branches, as well as the opposition, media, civil society and the country’s youth.

  • Mr. Edi Rama Prime Minister of Albania Prime Minister's Office Bulevardi Dëshmorët E Kombit Tirane
    Mr. Edi Rama Prime Minister of Albania Prime Minister's Office Bulevardi Dëshmorët e Kombit Tirane The Hague, 18 July 2018 Subject: Heritage in Danger – Support Request National Theatre of Albania, Tirana, Albania Dear Mr. Rama, Europa Nostra, The Voice of Cultural Heritage in Europe, wishes to express its sincere concern regarding the alarming decision to demolish the National Theatre of Albania, a heritage site of great cultural and architectural importance in Europe. The National Theatre, constructed in 1938 by the Italian architect Giulio Berté, is one of the most prominent cultural centres in the city of Tirana and is an important social and public space in the city. The Theatre is an outstanding example of modern Italian architecture from this time period and is the only building of its kind that exists in Albania. It is one of the last surviving historic landmarks in the capital. The construction technique employed and structural elements of the National Theatre of Albania are of unique historic importance and represent a pivotal point in the development of urbanism in Tirana. Preserving this historical type of architecture is crucial as it represents an indispensable part of the country’s heritage and has a special place in the collective memory of its past. In this respect, we disagree with any sentiment that this building has little or no historical, cultural or social value. On the contrary, Europa Nostra believes that the outstanding European value of this public property far exceeds any short-term benefit which stands to be gained by its demolition. Europa Nostra shares the concerns already expressed to you by Ana Tostöes, the Chair of Docomomo International in her letter addressed to the relevant decision makers on 12 April 2018.1 Europa Nostra also stands in solidarity with the reputable group of conservation specialists, professionals and academics in the fields of science and culture, as well as the many active members of civil society who have so strongly expressed their will to protect the National Theatre from demolition.

[email protected] Szerkesztésért felelős személy: CHen Xin Kiadásért felelős személy: Huang Ping china-cee.eu 2017/01 Edi Rama seals a third term in power Summary The former, current and future Prime Minister of Albania Edi Rama now has four more years to apply his agenda and mold the country into his own image. He made history by being the only Albanian leader to win three mandates in a row after the regime change in 1991. He made history indeed, for what kind of history, we are not sure of. It was expected for Rama to win, but not at this scale. His party now does not need any compromise or deal with the opposition because the mandates gained are enough to have the majority necessary for forming the new government. Introduction The much awaited general elections were held in Albania on April 25th – and the Socialist Party (PS) won the majority. For the next four year Edi Rama will be in charge of the executive branch (the Government) and the legislative branch (the Parliament). We claim the name of the leader and not of the political force because this is the practical/political reality of Albania. The race was harsh and dominated the past months with the main political fractions of the country in deep competition. There was much at stake, and much was done.
