Shkrimtarët e udhëtimeve janë duke e rekomanduar Shqipërinë si destinacionin e nxehtë turistik, por cfarë dimë ne për këtë vend të lashtë? Gjen luksin dhe shqetësimin nga njëra anë dhe liri, jetë të vështirë e papastërti në anën tjetër.
Rrethuar nga mure te hekurta malesh, karakterizuar nga tipare te egra peisazhesh të ashpra, shkëmbinj dhe humnera, gremina dhe lumenj, në pamjen më të ashpër dhe të ftohtë që kam parë ndonjëherë.
Kështu e përshkruante Edward Lear, atë që aso kohe ishte një vend i panjohur dhe misterioz në shkrimin e tij “Journals of a Landscape Painter in Albania” ().
Edward Gibbon, gjysmë shekulli më herët e quajti atë “një vend me pamjen e
Enver Hoxha by Blendi Fevziu review
Outside Albania, Hoxha was admired by some Western radicals for denouncing every kind of imperialism, from Yugoslav to Soviet to Chinese, as well as the US kind. The son of an imam, he was also praised in some quarters for closing all mosques and churches, declaring Albania the world’s first atheist state. His chutzpah in breaking with powerful allies became legendary. In March his politburo approved a union between Albania and Yugoslavia, but then the dictator got wind of plans for the Yugoslavs to replace him with a colleague, Koçi Xoxe. When Stalin denounced Yugoslavia a few weeks later for trying to set up a regional power-house linking Albania, Bulgaria and Greece, the Albanian politburo abandoned the union and lambasted Yugoslavia’s Marshal Tito. All Yugoslav experts were expelled. Xoxe was executed.

Themeluar nga Brendan Bracken, ministër i parë britanik i informacionit i pasluftës së dytë botërore, që, ndër të tjera, gjatë karrierës së vet ka shërbyer edhe nën Uinston Churchill-in, History Today ka nxjerrë edhe volumet prestigjioze History Review të dedikuara ekskluzivisht për audiencë akademike. Me një fjalë, History Today paraqet majat e asaj që mund ta cilësojmë si mendim serioz e shkencor në fushën bashkëkohore të historisë.
Në shënimin e vet, Richard Hodges asnjëherë nuk i referohet Fevziut si një historian, përkundrazi e cilëson ashtu siç është ai vërtet, një gazetar i politikës, por, gjithsesi,

Enver Hoxha: The Iron Fist of Albania tells the extraordinary story of how one man held an entire country hostage for 40 years – and got away with it.
Between and , the small Balkan nation of Albania was ruled by a strange, sociopathic and, frankly, completely mad dictator by the name of Enver Hoxha. While Stalinism effectively ended in Europe with the death of its namesake, or at least with the Khruschev reforms that followed, it continued unabated and unquestioned in Albania until
When Hoxha died in , Albania was officially the third poorest country in the world, with the GNP of a small town and an average income of 15 USD a month. Four decades of collectivisation had led to near starvation in the countryside, where Hoxha’s aggressive isolationism meant people were still using farming technology from the s. When the regime finally collapsed a few years after Hoxha’s death, it left behind a tired, hungry, confused and fearful population.
As Albanians marched towards democracy, like proverbial moles blinking into the sunlight, few had the time or will to reflect upon the man who had ru
