	2001/05/02 01:16 The Fantasy of “Greater Albania” in Albanian Politics
		The government of Albania and its diplomacy have spent a considerable amount of energy in order to convince their international interlocutors that the accusations of certain circles in neighbouring states concerning the aspirations to create “Greater Albania” were unsustainable.
		In four points of that platform, the political and institutional union of Albania with Kosovo is demanded, joint economic reform, customs and monetary union, psychological and cultural union and joint diplomatic action aimed at persuading the international community to start believing that such a union would be useful.
		Indeed, the idea of what is called “Greater Albania”, but which is in political vocabulary called “Ethnic Albania” and which implies the union of all the territories where the Albanians live in various states in the region, have always been present but on the margins of Albanian politics.

		ALBANIA WAS THE LAST COUNTRY in Eastern Europe during the early 1990s to undergo a transition from a totalitarian communist regime to an incipient system of democracy.
		Because Albania was isolated from the outside world and ruled by a highly repressive, Stalinist-type dictatorship for more than four decades, this transition was especially tumultuous and painful, making a gradual approach to reform difficult.
		Although Albania operated under the facade of constitutional rule, the communist party, led by Enver Hoxha, who was also president of Albania, actually controlled all aspects of the political, social, and economic systems.
