The Albanian Property Restitution and Compensation Agency (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783639142655)

Before the fall of communism, a great number of Albanian owners lost their property as the result of nationalizations, expropriations, confiscations, and other unjust actions performed by the communist state. The issue of restitution and compensation of property which was taken unjustly by the past regime, apart from being one of the most specific cases of acquisition of property rights is also one of the biggest problems the Albanian society is facing today. In this context, taking also in consideration all the injustices suffered by this group of people, the moral obligation the State has towards them, this work focuses in general on the restitution and compensation process of the immovable property in Albania, and in particular on the Property Restitution and Compensation Agency as an institution which is in place with the core mission of "regulating in a fair way according to the criteria established by article 41 of the Albanian Constitution, the issues of property rights that have arisen from expropriation, nationalization or confiscation".
