A number of researchers of this time are shedding light with their possibilities very clearly: Kasmi, Gurakuqi, Boçi, Kaba and many others are clearly elaborating on the trends in this war.
It is a fact that anyone living these times understands very well and clearly: as it is related to anti-fascism. A part of the so-called Right in the country and who obviously have the mentality of the former Left reject it a priori. The shameful attempt to cover up the collaborationism, which surprisingly in our country is considered a value for some; "massive" hatred for anti-fascism by associating it with communism; the fading of the values of the victory over fascism brings us down many, many steps below the values that today hold the spirit of the countries that defeated fascism. It would be a great battle at the Peace Conference in 1946, so that Albania, thanks to the pressure of the Greek delegation and others, would not fall into the camp of the defeated and be deprived not only of the demands of fair compensation, but also from the narrative, that a bunch of countries decided this war. Little Albania found itself on the side of the three superpowers that defeated fascism. Some like it or not. Otherwise, it is not unlikely that today's limit could be much higher than the existing one. It's just that today our neighbors in the South do not respect this verdict and reveal the "Law of War" to us.
Anyway, the thesis, which is being taken by the citizen among the researchers, is the one that proves the double character that the Second World War took in Albania from September 1943-November 1944, that of the national liberation resistance but also of the civil war/conflict, but it is understood , that different individuals elaborate according to their own ways and not a few times and from political tendencies. As is usually the case, when we disagree with ourselves, let us trust outsiders: The British scholar, Eric Hobsbawm, often quoted in our studies, argued that as early as the 1930s and, especially in the period during the Second World War in In Europe, the events took on the character of an international civil war, giving us a paradigm that: "oppositions between fascist and anti-fascist forces became internal in every society". Meanwhile, the French researcher Bernard Lory, analyzing the Balkans during the Second World War, reaches the conclusion about the fourfold character of the events in this region of Europe: liberation, religious, ethnic, civil. In short, it cannot be said more clearly than that.
A number of researchers of this time are shedding light with their possibilities very clearly: Kasmi, Gurakuqi, Boçi, Kaba and many others are clearly elaborating on the trends in this war. But without getting into the deadlocks that this time of sensitivity imposes, the great surprise remains for politics. Especially the Left one. While our biggest Allies, or some of the Western countries (with minor contributions) try to raise even the few strained elements of anti-fascism, we hide them. We foam them. That's why it was so surprising that the Municipality, which did such a good activity for November 28, 2024 and that leaves no occasion unexploited for celebrations, was so lukewarm for November 17 of the Liberation of Tirana and the 80th anniversary of the Liberation of the Motherland. Indeed, there were no shortage of wreaths at the Martyrs' Cemetery and the high-ranking leaders among them and the annual incidents of political protagonism, but this date clearly already complicates the Left.
Not simply for the careful care and curation so to speak, but also in the lack of efforts to give the country a well-accepted liberation date, as well as above all the reunification on this date. Like it or not, only 3% of anti-fascists were communists in LDB (World War II), while even many so-called individuals to whom we attribute the term nationalist have something to be proud of for the War. Just as the two sides must bow their heads for the murders in the war, the open collaboration with the fascists and the macabre tollovina in the days when Albania was waking up without the fascist hood over its head. But unfortunately, today's Leftists, who are led by Rama, have a complex with the War, firstly because of the position they took in 1944 and secondly because this value still casts a shadow on them today. As for the people who claim to be Right-wing, they can use this day as a day off and deal with the atrocities of those times, when not a few people who glorify them ran away cowering with the invaders.
