Abstract:

In societies where it has been known and applied, bloodfeud is described as a possibly outdated and uncivilized mechanism, but often effective to limit violence. Indeed, both in form and substance the phenomenon itself is hard to be perceived and understood by the modern citizen of every country of the world, including Albania, where it is still active in some regions in respect of “Kanun”. In fact, the Albanian term 'Kanun' describes the body of traditional norms/standards and rules governing society in the field of criminal, civil and procedural laws. Its application or merely its existence

Abstract:

Svrha je ovog rada rasprava o primjeni nekih posebnih pravnih instituta Kanuna Lekë Dukagjina u suvremenom albanskom pravu. Tradicionalno, ovaj Kanun imao je, i još uvijek ima, utjecaj na svim područjima života Albanaca. Drugim riječima, primjena Kanuna još je izazov suvremenom pravnom sustavu jer narod nastavlja rješavati svoje prijepore temeljem Kanuna. Cilj ovog rada je objasniti pisano običajno pravo, istaknuti prednosti i mane njegove primjene kao i vezu s nekim pravilima javnog (kaznenog) i privatnog (građanskog) prava.

Abstract:

AbstractSince the late nineteenth century, ideas about law, both Albanian and ‘other’, have played significant parts in the development of a sense of ‘Albanian-ness’ and remain central to the ongoing construction of the nation. In this paper, I examine how comparative thinking about ‘Albanian law’ in northern Albania and predominantly Albanian Kosovo has contributed to nation-building aims, with particular reference to comparative thinking around the Kanun of Lekë Dukagjin, an early-twentieth-century legal code rooted in northern-Albanian customary practices. I look at this from two perspectiv

Abstract:

This article considers factors that have effected and influenced the continuity of the customary law named the Kanun of Lek Dukagjini in some areas of Albanian and Kosovo. It draws on ethnographic data on the border area villages between Albania and Kosovo to discuss the dynamics and tensions that are created between state and non-state law vis-à-vis justice in highly complex and problematic social, economic, and political contexts. Customary law and state law seem to be two conflicting legal ideologies. However, the article considers everyday settings where people make use of both legal syste

Abstract:

This article compares judicial institutions of customary law and modern law. There are many discussions between authors regarding the relation between customary and modern law, specifically the impact of customary law in modern law. The role of the customary law is of crucial importance especially its impact in the positive law of the country. Although, the customary law was practiced years ago, similarities with current positive law are obvious. Many of the judicial institutions in Albanian customary law can be compared with similar ones in modern law, but is also crucial to identify differen

Abstract:

The Kanun of Leke Dukagjini is a collection of Albanian norms and customs with a legal-social character, in several centuries, before and after the life of Leke Dukagjini, which is thought to be a codifier. The laws of the Code have long served as social norms and as a system of self-government that prevailed in the highlands of northern Albania at the time when the region was ruled by the Ottoman Empire. The Code has a fundamental importance in the history of the Albanian people as it is an ancient document. His first written form refers to Leke Dukagjini, although it is considered to have ex

Abstract:

Population statistics for Kosovo show an unusually high share of male deaths (SMD) among all deaths. Women have a very low status in traditional parts of Kosovo – a direct consequence of the so-called Kanun of Lekë Dukagjini. This set of behavioural rules, practiced in Northern Albania and Kosovo, is strongly associated with a patriarchal culture. According to the code, a woman cannot own immovable property. Thus, to register the death of a family member at the office for civil registration is less urgent for women than for men. We assume that female deaths are under-registered. (i) A high SMD

Abstract:

The Kanun of Lekë Dukagjini is the most famous and comprehensive compilation of Albanian customary law. For centuries it strictly governed social behavior and everyday life among Albanians in different historical periods. Even if the Kanun is not legal today, it is widely respected and still practiced in parts of Albania and Kosova. The aim with this thesis is to study how Kosova Albanians in Sweden relate to the customary laws concerning family and marriage in the Kanun. In order to reach the aim, a qualitative research method was used. We have conducted seven semi-structured interviews with

Abstract:

Albania is a young democratic country that is still learning how to move forward. Albania has lived under regimes not democratically chosen for centuries: the Ottoman Empire before and the Communist regime than. These impositions have not allowed it to create an identity as a nation, this is the reason why they believe into the only code not forced from the high and that dates back to the Middle Age. The Kanun of Lëke Dukagjini is a customary code of laws that has ruled Albanians lives before the Ottoman Empire conquered the country. The Kanun influences everyday life still today. Albania rema

Abstract:

My thesis explores the roles in Albanian nation-building of the Kanun of Lekë Dukagjin, an early-twentieth century codification of northern-Albanian customary practices, and the Pajtimi i Gjaqeve, a late-twentieth century movement to conciliate blood feuds in Kosovo. To understand them, we need to know: what both were, in their own terms; their significance; and how they relate to other aspects of nation-building, and comparative examples. I draw on participant-observation fieldwork, archive work and extensive interviews. Nation-building is necessarily complicated and the Albanian case partic
