Menjehere mbas viteve te luft es se dyte boterore, studimet mbi paqen dhe mbrojtjen nga konfl iktet e ndryshme, jane berë perhere e më të rendsishme duke arritur në një ndryshim rrenjesor të paradigmave në vitet '70. Vemendja e studiuesve u perqendru në konceptin "paqe" (negative) jo më si ekuilibër internacjonale diametralisht i kundërt me gjendjen e luft es por si raport që ka të bejnë me "mungesën e dhunës" (structurale o kulturale). Nje paqe e ndertuar vetëm nepermjet ndryshimit rrenjesor të shoqerisë, të zhvillimit politik e ekonomik, si dhe zhdukjes se pabarazinave. Ne brendesi te ketij projekti që permbledh shumë fusha studimi ne te cilin ishte e rendsishme krij imi i nje shoqerij e te re në sferën politike, ekonomike e kulturore perfshihet edhe një mendim i ri mbi ate te quajturën "Peace Economics". Çfare do te thotë: "Peace Economics"? Duke perdorur thenjet e Jurgen Brauer dhe ato të Raul Caruso mund te themi që ajo përfshin studimin ekonomik, projektimin dhe themelimin e nocjoneve kryesore dhe istitucionet perkatse politike, ekonomike dhe kulturore; bashkëveprimi i tyre, dhe politikat per të parandaluar, lehtësuar o zgjidhjen e çdo lloj violence aktuale, dhe fshehur, o konfl ikte të tjera shkaterruese brenda shoqerive ose mes shoqerive te ndryeshme". Cilat jane krakteristikat e Peace Economics? Dhe çfare lidhje egziston mes Peace Economics dhe procesit te integrimit europjan? Ky përpunim do te tregojë se fi llimi i këtij studimi i ka rrenjet në procesin e integrimit që ka sjelle krij imin e istituteve europjane. Mund te themi që zhvillimi i njeres ka ndihmuar e kondiscionuar zhvillimin e tjetres dhe gjithashtu në te kundert. Shembulli dhe historia e komunitetit europjan (Europes se bashkuar) dëshmojnë qe bashkpunimi dhe integrimi politik, ekonomik shoqeror kan qenë elemente të domodoshme te nje politike qe ka ndyshuar fetyuren e botes

International audience ; The arrangements offered by international community as solutions to Yugoslav dissolution process have significantly affected the development of the Kosovo conflict. These policies failed to produce consensus between the parties in conflict, instead, as the paper demonstrate, they played the role of a catalyst in the initiation of the conflict. This paper, by offering a detailed reconstruction of the process by which the international community tried to settle the Kosovo case, demonstrates how the dynamics of the conflict interacted dynamically with international community attitudes and policies towards the case. The paper discusses the attitudes and policies of international community toward the Kosovo case underlining its attachment to traditional prerequisites of international order instead of inherited causes of conflict. There are three important events that underline the interference of international community in the case of Kosovo before the war: the Conference on Yugoslavia that followed up the creation of the Badinter Committee, the Dayton Agreement and the Rambouillet Talks. These events are explained in details in three separate sections since they have immediate implications for the situation in Kosovo and consequently for the development of the conflict. We first discuss the contribution of existing normative framework to models of international community behavior and their effects in the case of Kosovo conflict following with the reaction of the conflicting parties towards offered arrangements. Both moments are assumed to be of importance in providing a larger picture in the understanding of the outgrowth of Kosovo conflict.

The culmination of dialogue between religious communities is holding interreligious conferences. Until now, five such meetings were held in Macedonia, of which, the first one was at state level and it came as a result of the ethnic war in 2001, initiated by the President of the country and helped by the relevant researchers from the scope of the dialogue; the second one was a regional summit where the leaders of Southeast European countries attended; whereas, the last three conferences were at world level and were supported by Macedonian Government. In this research, it was used the descriptive method, relevant reports and results of a survey of the Institute for Democracy regarding interreligious dialogue were analyzed, whereas the interview was used as a technique. The hypothesis of this research is focused on the success of these conferences regarding population. The results show that despite the fact that these conferences have become part of government programs and the tradition for their organization has already been formed, they have deviated from their essence and initial vision, to be a catalyst of peace in the country and the region.

The essay is part of a research contained in the volume Lessico degli italianismi nella lingua Albanese, in press, which updates the works in this field through a systematic scrutiny of bilingual dictionaries by both Albanian authors, from Bardhi (1635) to Bashkimi (1908), and Italian authors, from Da Lecce (1702) to Cordignano (1938). The research has also taken into account monolingual dictionaries from 1954 up to the most recent ones, both normative and non normative ones (2006), in order to trace the presence of new Italianisms introduced since the democratic turn. It is important to notice that italianizëm starts being recorded in 2002. Etymological studies by Miklosich (1871) and E. Çabej (1974-2006), besides Meyer's etymological dictionary (1891), have also been referred to. The present research makes use of literary works, the first translations, some contemporary novels and newspapers in order to witness the vitality of the new entries. The research also includes specific vocabulary traced in terminological dictionaries in the field of music, mechanics, church, law, economy and cookery: altogether words which, although not fully accepted in normative dictionaries, are now part of the language use.

We live in an era where the university system is undergoing great changes owing to developments in financing policies and research priorities, as well as changes in the society in which this system is embedded. This change toward a more market-oriented university, which also has immediate effects in academic peripheries such as the Balkans, the Middle East, or South-East Asia, is of great influence for the pedagogical practice of "less profitable" academic areas such as the Humanities: philosophy, languages, sociology, anthropology, history. Because of the absence of a historically grounded establishment of the Humanities, academic peripheries, usually accompanied by a weak civil society infrastructure, seem to offer the most fertile ground for rethinking the Humanities, their pedagogical practice, and their politics, as well as the greatest threats, such as the ongoing capitalization of research, and profitability as the norm of educational achievement. The sprawling presence of for-profit universities and in academic peripheries such as Albania and Kosovo is indicative of this problematic, as are consistent underfunding of universities and the relentless budget cuts in American and English, and to a lesser extent European, universities. Motivations for this ongoing attack on the university are often driven by a political system or a politics with an aggressive stance to critical thought.
