Sociological Pilot analyses

 

The South East European Institute of International Affairs presents a commentary of our Associate Member, Fadil Maloku, Ph.D. Candidate, Department of Social Sciences and Sociology, Pristine University – Kosovo, on the current situation in Kosovo.

The commentary will be shortly available on our web site, too, at (www.seeiia.freeservers.com)

 

Since the SEEIIA operates, inter allia, as an e-based forum of exchanging views on a non-partisan basis, it will publicize the views of the Serbian side, too. The aim of this discourse is to provide intellectual ground for conflict resolution and initiate a genuine healing process with the final aim of regulating the tense relations between the two communities according to International Law.

 

The views expressed here are personal and do not necessarily reflect the views of the SEEIIA. We avoided editing and “interfering with” the text to allow readers formulate their own point of view on the situation and make their own evaluating judgements.

 

The SEEIIA would like to thank Fadil Maloku for his cooperation.      

 

           

WHAT CAUSED THE MARCH 2004 KOSOVAR REBELLION?

 

 

Domestic media, and in particular foreign media, have conducted a propaganda campaign trying to consume, and more particularly address, the latest events through an ethnic message. Those less informed, and those who tend to look at the world through a black and white spectrum, will naturally address these events as such.

 

Only multidimensional future analyses will bring to light the reflections of this message in post war Kosovo. As for now, if we place the whole event under a sociological microscope and, using a surgeons scalpel, we should try to diagnose, not the effects as some politicians and local analysts are actually doing, but, in bold lines, the causes (or the real cause, because we are dealing with an event, turmoil, rebellion or a tendency that pretends changes of whatever nature they may be) that will direct us towards the relevant facts that incited Kosovar Albanian youth to rebel on this scale and at this time.
