Summary

Fred Abrahams: Contemporary Albania

From Dictatorship to Democracy in Europe

In the early 1990s, the most closed and repressive country in Europe began a stunning transition, a way out of forty years of self-imposed communist isolation. Albanians who were not allowed to practice religion, travel abroad, wear jeans or read "decadent" Western literature, began to swallow the outside world. They opened cafes, companies, started magazines, previously forbidden rock music echoed in the streets. Churches and mosques have reopened.

Contemporary Albania offers a vivid account of the history of these dramatic changes, allowing insight into the most significant events, such as the last meetings of the communist Politburo, the first student uprisings, the fall of the communist regime, the outflow of refugees, the war in neighboring Kosovo and Albania's relationship with the United States.

Based on personal experience from two decades of work in Albania, interviews with key actors of these important events, Albanians and foreigners - former members of the Politburo, opposition leaders, intelligence agents, diplomats and founders of the Kosovo Liberation Army - and numerous government documents from Albania and the United States, which have been declassified, the author assembles a mosaic of Modern Albania.
