This is the first full account of a country that, following decades of isolation, has undergone unprecedented changes to its political system: the collapse of communism, the progression to multi-party elections and the upheaval that followed the March 1997 uprising. Miranda Vickers traces the history of the Albanian people from the Ottoman period to the formation of the Albanian Communist Party. She considers the charismatic leadership of Enver Hoxha; Albania's relationship with Tito and the alliance with the Soviet Union and then China; and the long period of isolation. Newly revised for this paperback edition, The Albanians considers the gradual process of reform and the fragility of the Albanian experiment with democracy, and includes a dramatic account of the days leading up to Sali Berisha's resignation of the presidency. It has now been updated to cover the fight for independence in Kosovo and the progress of Albania's application to join the EU. Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |

The statement at the beginning of the book left me puzzled. The author stated that since the 1940's archaeological expeditions focused on showing a direct link between the Illyrians and modern day Albanians but this sentence wasn't explained further in the book. Actually, I'm surprised the Albanians had the time or inclination for archaeological expeditions as it seems like everything was either in an uproar or people were interested in just maintaining their life and surviving.
I wish them well. They've had it rough. And that's an understatement. ( )
