Social:Albanian Gandhism

From HandWiki

Albanian Gandhism or Rugovaism (Alb. Gandismi Shqiptare) was a pacifist political movement and strategy adopted in Kosovo started by Ibrahim Rugova with the goal of attaining peace and independence before prior to military aggression in Kosovo. According to Shkëlzen Maliqi, author of Albanski Gandhism,[1] the movement surprised the both Serbian officials and the Albanians.[2][3] The movement began slowly in the 1990s aimed against constitutional changes.[4] The idea was initiated by Ibrahim Rugova after Kosovos proclamation of independence.[5] However the movement began to disappoint Albanians as it didn't bear the fruit which they hoped for, and so, it was abandoned.[6] Rugova was critical of the Albanian resistance movement as he believed it was dangerous for civilians to venture out on the streets without the danger of being abused.[7] Rugova emphasised a culture and policy of waiting. In 1997, Rugovas gandhism was criticised by the LDK-party and others, and the government in Tirana began holding meetings with Rugovas opposition parties.[8] The idea of Albanian gandhism was favoured by Adem Demaçi who encouraged conversation with Belgrade.[9] Though Demaci did not hesitate to defend and political national interests of the Albanians.[10] The movements aim was to change the previous Albanian culture to act in a way favourable to the international community on a local and international level.[11]
