‘ALBANIA IN THE NEXT TEN YEARS ENVISIONING THE FUTURE’
Tirana, 29-30 March 2012

Albania has just entered its 100th year of existence as an independent state, since the declaration of Independence from the Ottoman Empire in November of 1912. The century of existence of Albania has had a tremendously rich and diverse history featuring celebratory, contradictable and undisclosed phenomena.

The Albanian state had a strongly precarious birth and first years of existence given the hostile regional environment and the international relations it had at the time. This threatened existence persisted until the end of the World Wars with the establishment of the communist regime. Albania spent the next five decades under one of the most isolated, Stalinist-style regimes with severe consequences on its society and economy. The last 20 years have marked a controversial transition period, which despite Albania entry to the NATO alliance and some steps towards European integration, is agreed by most scholars to be still in the process.

The next ten years will be crucially important to Albania’s future and its prospects to establish democratic governance and to consolidate a functioning state that enjoys full legitimacy and provides basic public goods to its citizens. Similarly, they will be critical to the country’s capacity to build a developed capitalist economy based on free competition. Such a development process is in essence Albania’s Europeanization project.

Therefore, the Albanian Institute for International Studies, the Albanian Media Institute and the Friedrich Ebert Foundation (Albania) will organize an international symposium: Albania in the next ten years – envisioning the future, which will gather renown scholars, historians, political scientists, economist, civil society figures and a variety of other experts in the related fields.

The first part of the symposium will be dedicated to discussing important historical phases of the existence of the Albanian state.



The second part will focus more on presentations that elaborate future scenarios for Albania, taking into account a range of possibilities. Panellists will be encouraged to treat a rich spectre of variables in determining hypothetic future placements of the Albanian state and society and elaborate on potential challenges that the country is likely to face in the next decade.

The organizers would like to seek your contributions in the area of your interest/expertise! Please send letters of interest and/or abstracts to mllubani@aiis-albania.org.

ALBANIAN - ITALIAN RELATIONS
STRENGTHENING AND DEEPENING A STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP
Tirana

Organizers: Albanian Institute for International Studies (AIIS), Albanian-Italian Institute

Supporters: Italian Embassy in Tirana, Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Albania

Partners: Albanian Media Institute, Istituto Affari Internazionali, Institute of Dialogue and Communication, Tirana Times

Albania’s relations with Italy are of paramount importance. The geopolitical setting of both countries, the geographical proximity that has favored and encouraged permanent communication between the two nations, the cultural understanding and affinity, make Italy and relations with it strategically the most important ones. Hence, bilateral cooperation with Italy has been high on the agenda of consecutive post-communist Albanian governments. Italy’s “Albania policy” has been very active in supplying economic and security aid to Albania and has made Italy’s voice an important one in Tirana.
Albania’s relations with Italy are also strategically important in the context of EU involvement in the Balkans. Developments within the EU, the EU approach towards the region, and the role Italy plays in the process provide the dynamic background within which bilateral relations ought to be analyzed.
In 2010, both countries launched a strategic partnership to strengthen their relationship not only in the political, economic, defense and security realm, but in the social and cultural realm too. As the Balkans is moving towards the EU integration and as the EU is moving south towards Balkans the Albanian-Italian strategic partnership remains vital to the strategic economic, political, and security interests of both states. The conference will asses the current state of affairs and the prospects for the future of Albanian Italian relations.

The conference will feature three panels:

-The politics of Relationship: Albanian Italian Relations in Transition

-The economy: State of affaires and challenges ahead

-The Uniqueness of Culture- where to aim.
