The effects of property laws on the process of restitution and compensation
in post-communist Albania, under the framework of transitional justice.
regulating them would bring many benefits on Albania’s road to EU, and vice versa. Also, in order
to make them more accessible, it is best to make laws and legal procedures more understandable
and simplified for citizens. Good, enforceable, well-implemented laws and effective measures
would avoid the judicial procedures that place so many burdens on institutions. In addition to
the reforms being undertaken in the field of justice, the fight against corruption would greatly
improve the work in the property issue.
So, in conclusion, the unresolved property issue in Albania points to a situation that has not
been remedied and even over the years has had effects in many areas, with the impact inevitably
felt. Numerous laws, change of institutions, lack of up to several years ago of electronic systems
and registers of administrative and judicial decisions brought uncertainty and a profound lack
of information. Such a situation has begun to be rectified but is necessary to avoid further legal
changes and changes of institutions that work on property rights, as it will continue to become
a source of further uncertainties and problems. We cannot say that nothing was accomplished,
but the Albanian state must be careful about its activities in this field. Ownership problems
and adverse effects are also acknowledged in the Albanian State’s Cross-Sectorial Ownership
Strategies, hoping that over the years this situation will be remedied.
