Abstract As is known historically, part of the World Anti-Fascist Grand Coalition was also another great ally, United States. Even the allies had issued the Declaration of December 1942, for recognition of the anti-fascist resistance of the Albanian people, as well as Great Britain and the Soviet Union, making it part of the International Coalition and part of his war against the common enemies nazi and fascists. Nevertheless, beyond the lack of these interests, the Americans under the World Anti-Fascist Grand Coalition few months after the british began in the tiny Balkan military missions, although few toward British ally.

Abstract:
Environmental history and landscape transformations vis-à-vis agricultural modernization policies such as the reclaiming of land hardly features in studies on the Italian fascist annexation of Albania. This paper focuses on the main features of Italian economic and landscape efforts in Albania during the fascist years through a general overview of the Italian period with respect to economic and land reclamation works, and an exploration of Italys colonial policies in the modernization and regeneration of Albanian landscape. Its scope includes Italys interwar interventionist efforts in Albania in economy and land reclamation, but not the substantial literature on Italian contribution to the transformation of Albanian urban landscapes during the interwar period. The urban planning of Albania by Italian architects, engineers, and urbanists that developed from 1920 to 1939 has been dealt with extensively in scholarship regarding Albania.

Abstract:
Using Italian and Albanian archive sources, this essay analyses the effectiveness of Italian policy in Albania, during the years of its union with Italy (1939–1943), in the creation of a model Fascist state and in the generation of support for Italy among the Albanian population. Through the creation of party and state structures similar to those in Italy, Fascism intended to give voice to Albanian Nationalist demands, but Italian policy was undermined by a basic defect which helped to cool any initial enthusiasm: the loss of all semblance of Albanian independence and the exploitation of local resources to the benefit of the Italians alone. The Italy-Greece conflict cast a shadow on the Fascist fighting ability which not even the creation of ‘Great Albania’ (thanks to the help of the Germans) removed. As Italy's military fortunes changed for the worse, they were forced to address a growing resistance until the tragic conclusion of 8th September 1943 and the end of the occupation.

Abstract:
Kingdom of Albania’s fascist regime considered education as one of the pillars of its policy in Kosovo and Metohija during World War II. With the aim of spreading and strengthening Albanian national identity and culture, several hundreds of educators were sent from the “Old Albania” to Kosovo and Metohija. The Italian occupation authorities were not supportive of the educational policy pursued by the officials in Tirana, which often resulted in disagreement between the two sides. After liberating the province in 1944, the Communist Party of Yugoslavia decided to keep the teachers and educators who misused their positions to serve the Greater Albania cause, as there was no available staff to replace them. The paper is based primarily on the unpublished sources from the Central State Archives of Albania in Tirana, the Diplomatic Archives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Belgrade, the Archives of Serbia, and the Archives of Yugoslavia.

The three articles that follow are the second part of a special issue of Fascism devoted to case studies in ‘Latin’ architecture in the fascist era, the first part of which was published in volume 7 (2018), no. 1. The architecture of three clearly para-fascist regimes comes under the spotlight: those of Spain, Portugal, and Brazil, in each of which a genuine fascist movement was either absorbed into a right-wing dictatorship (as occurred under Franco) or disbanded by it while perceptibly retaining some fascist elements (as in the case of the Salazar and Vargas regimes). Once again, the juxtaposition of the articles reveals unexpected elements of internationalism, entanglements, and histoires croisées both sides of the Atlantic in the impact of the fascist experiments in Germany and Italy.

Abstract:
Following his seizure of power in 1922, Mussolini began to pursue the policy of 'mare nostrum' of the ancient Romans. He had an eye on the Anatolian lands bordering the Mediterranean. Local symbol of the Italian menace was the Dodecanese Islands which were started to be fortified in 1934. Mussolini's speech of that year showed that Italy did not renounce its earlier designs on Turkish territory. Atatürk did not take Mussolini's claims seriously, but the danger Italy represented could not be ignored. During the Ethiopian crisis, Turkey supported the League of Nations' sanctions against Italy and advocated the principle of collective security. Facing Italian expansionism, Turkey requested the holding of an international conference in Montreux and succeeded to obtain the right of bringing back the Straits to full Turkish sovereignty. Turkey's distrust of Italy deepened in 1937 and 1938. Ankara disliked the policy of Rome-Berlin axis. It did not acquit Italy of designs in the eastern Mediterranean. Italian occupation of Albania in 1939 soon led to Turkey's signing of mutual assistance agreements with Britain and France. Italy sharply denounced the Turco-Anglo-French rapprochement. For Turkey, as an ally in the eastern Mediterranean, had the strength to tip the balance against Italy.

Abstract:
This essay discusses the political events that took place in Albania in 1939 and the linguistic policies that were implemented in the newly reformed state as part of a well-organized plan that would lead to the ‘Italianization’ and ‘Fascist-ization’ of Albania. Following the unification of Albania with the Italian state the 7th of April 1939, the need for an efficient communication between the two countries was one of the most important matters in terms of the functioning of political and bureaucratic matters. Certainly, a communicative exchange between two countries that were relatively different from the linguistic and cultural point of view was of crucial importance both from the historical and the linguistic point of view (e.g. interpreting and translation). The moment of collision between the two countries (with two different – if not completely radically opposite – language and cultural identities) generated the need for cultural mediators (such as interpreters and translators) to act as ambassadors and messengers in the new, critical political-military situation. The following political context – the annexation of the Albanian state by Fascist Italy – is a context where patriotism, loyalty and admiration for one's own country but also corruption, collaborationism and many more were key elements strictly correlated to the needs and interests of the Fascist Regime for the occupation of Albania and its political, social and cultural submission. The translation act represented a crucial, indispensable means of communication when performing institutional and bureaucratic acts.

This dissertation examines a building program for Fascist headquarters, or Case del Fascio, established by the Partito Nazionale Fascista (PNF) during the years of Italian Fascism, from 1922 to 1943. The PNF planned over 11,000 buildings by 1943 on the Italian mainland and in their colonial territories. This examination is a chronological study of these buildings demonstrating that the PNF expressed its political messages in built-form. Between 1919 and 1943, the PNF developed its political ideology, documented in the Statute of 1921, and its modifications in 1926, 1929, 1932, and 1938. The PNF building program mirrored their constantly modified political goals, as well as the PNF's decisions in areas of culture, religion, and foreign policy. The physical form of the Casa del Fascio embodied the PNF's evolving character that changed from fringe to progressive, to dominant, to authoritarian and militaristic. While the politicians developed programmatic needs for the PNF headquarters building, many architects developed their own consensus about its design from articles in their professional periodicals. Journalists featured PNF sponsored competitions for Case del Fascio, Palazzi del Littorio, and Torri Littorie - all versions or components of the developing headquarters building. Wide spread participation of architects in national competitions for fascist headquarters allowed architects to observe other solutions and offer their interpretations. Articles and newsreels of building inaugurations aided the architect's view of the PNF's preferred examples. What began as a clandestine meeting space evolved into a building that could be identified at a distance as a Casa del Fascio - a symbol of the PNF, if not Mussolini, himself. However, no one model stood as the template for the new political building. Variations in form, plan configuration, and aesthetics continued until the PNF's 1943 demise, despite the 1936 "Declaration of the Empire" and the PNF's association with Germany - which would have suggested a government-sanctioned "monumental Roman" model. The outcome reveals that architects had unusually strong design control. My study is a chronological analysis, using over 4,000 architectural examples, overlaid with the changing ideology of the PNF, which reveals the reactive design interpretations by professional architects during the Ventennio.

Abstract:
This thesis concentrates on urban regeneration as a strategy of urban transformation in general and in the context of post-communist countries in particular. The spatial transformations in cities resulted by the urban renewal and regeneration processes are currently under discussion in Albania. The present research is based on three pillars: a review of the urban transformation, renewal and regeneration in the West and in post-socialist cities in particular
exploring the historical formation and transformation of the Tirana city centre
and finally the regeneration of the city centre through a series of international competitions as a completely new model introduced by the municipality. The thesis focuses particularly on the international competition organized to obtain the master plan for the regeneration of the Tirana city centre
it compares the main concepts, ideas and features of the three shortlisted entries: Those of Architecture Studio, Mecanoo Arkitekten and Boles and Wilson. The winning master plan is evaluated with regard to the objectives of the regeneration, its integration with the existing built environment and open spaces, as well as the process of implementation. Within this framework, the thesis aims to study and evaluate this process to direct the urban development through a master plan competition completed by a series of urban design and architectural competitions. The process of regeneration of the centre of Tirana illustrates that despite the increased capacity of the citizens in Albania in participating in the decision making of the government, the public participation in the planning process was a difficult task despite the efforts of the Municipality. Yet, the enthusiasm that the new vision of Tirana brings is considerable.

Abstract:
On the eve of the twentieth century, the dismembering of old empires brought the formation of many new nation states, therefore of emerging new capitals. Becoming independent in 1912, Albania chose its definitive capital, Tirana, in 1920. Since then, the city has been a showcase of planning and architectural interventions for various regimes that have come in power, and its centre was and still is seen as a possibility to show the political ideals of each. The aim of this study is to examine how this important part of the city was produced, used and transformed in a timespan starting from 1920 until the fall of the People'
s Socialist Republic in 1991. The spatial analysis of the city'
s centre and the description of the relations between the main actors of these processes will help us understand the underlying goals for which these representative spaces were designed. On the other hand, comparing its urban elements with those of several coetaneous capitals will locate Tirana among the important planning examples of the time.

Abstract:
abstract: Improving the conditions of schools in many parts of the world is gradually acquiring importance. The Green School movement is an integral part of this effort since it aims at improving indoor environmental conditions. This would in turn, enhance student- learning while minimizing adverse environmental impact through energy efficiency of comfort-related HVAC and lighting systems. This research, which is a part of a larger research project, aims at evaluating different school building designs in Albania in terms of energy use and indoor thermal comfort, and identify energy efficient options of existing schools. We start by identifying three different climate zones in Albania; Coastal (Durres), Hill/Pre-mountainous (Tirana), mountainous (Korca). Next, two prototypical school building designs are identified from the existing stock. Numerous scenarios are then identified for analysis which consists of combinations of climate zone, building type, building orientation, building upgrade levels, presence of renewable energy systems (solar photovoltaic and solar water heater). The existing building layouts, initially outlined in CAD software and then imported into a detailed building energy software program (eQuest) to perform annual simulations for all scenarios. The research also predicted indoor thermal comfort conditions of the various scenarios on the premise that windows could be opened to provide natural ventilation cooling when appropriate. This study also estimated the energy generated from solar photovoltaic systems and solar water heater systems when placed on the available roof area to determine the extent to which they are able to meet the required electric loads (plug and lights) and building heating loads respectively. The results showed that there is adequate indoor comfort without the need for mechanical cooling for the three climate zones, and that only heating is needed during the winter months.

Abstract:
La tesi indaga l'esperienza del gruppo composto da Francesco Fariello, Saverio Muratori e Ludovico Quaroni, attivo dal 1934 al 1940 a Roma. Nel loro seppur breve ma intenso periodo di collaborazione presero parte ai più importanti concorsi di architettura nazionali e parteciparono al vivace dibattito degli anni Trenta attraverso una proficua attività editoriale sulle principali riviste di architettura e non. Nei loro progetti attraversarono linguaggi diversi, aderendo in un primo momento a un'originale modernità, che prendeva a modello riferimenti osservati principalmente sulle riviste straniere, per piegare infine verso una espressione architettonica che guardava alla classicità come bacino di una nuova grammatica del costruire. Incarnarono a pieno la complessità della cultura architettonica italiana durante gli ultimi anni del ventennio fascista, approdando, nella conclusione della loro attività collaborativa, alla progettazione dell'Esposizione universale del 1942. I progetti proposti per i concorsi del Palazzo dei Ricevimenti e dei Congressi e per la Piazza Imperiale e gli edifici prospicienti appaiono oggi -e tali apparirono anche allora- in contraddizione con i primi lavori. Questa svolta, oltre a rappresentare un generale diffuso arresto dell'architettura moderna in Italia, a causa, come noto, del nuovo carattere imperiale atteso da Benito Mussolini dopo la conquista d'Etiopia e della politica autarchica che restringeva di fatto la possibilità di usare materiali come ferro e vetro, fu anche dettata da un progressivo avvicinamento dei tre giovani a Marcello Piacentini. Un capitolo della tesi è dedicato alla descrizione del loro rapporto, a partire dall'intensa partecipazione di Fariello e Muratori alla redazione di «Architettura» fino alla collaborazione professionale di Quaroni con Piacentini nei progetti allestitivi delle edizioni della Triennale di Milano del 1936 e del 1940. L'esame puntuale dei numerosi disegni di studio inediti dei tre architetti per i progetti dell'E42, rinvenuti nel fondo personale di Quaroni conservato presso l'Associazione archivio storico Olivetti, mette in luce il tentativo di costruire una propria peculiare identità classica sulla base dello studio di edifici provenienti da un vasto repertorio, italiano e straniero, antico e contemporaneo. Ciò dimostra che la loro esperienza dell'E42 non fu orientata esclusivamente verso i modelli del neoclassicismo scandinavo, così come la letteratura precedente ha sostenuto a partire dalla monografia di Manfredo Tafuri su Quaroni del 1964, ma su un ampio spettro di riferimenti progettuali ispirati, come essi stessi scrissero nella relazione di concorso del Palazzo dei Ricevimenti e dei Congressi, alle «buone architetture classiche di tutti i tempi», sulla linea di una cultura progettuale appresa pochi anni prima alla Scuola superiore di Architettura di Roma. Fu la Scuola infatti, e in particolare i corsi biennali di Storia e stili dell'architettura di Vincenzo Fasolo e di Disegno architettonico ed elementi di composizione di Enrico Del Debbio, a educare gli architetti a un metodo operativo che coglieva dalla storia schemi spaziali e regole compositive, necessari a istruire il progetto del nuovo. La seconda guerra mondiale interruppe sia il cantiere dell'Esposizione universale, sia la loro collaborazione, probabilmente in crisi già dal 1938. L'esperienza di questi anni si dissolse in tre carriere distinte, che seppur gravitanti tutte tra le aule della Facoltà di architettura di Roma, intrapresero cammini, metodologicamente e disciplinarmente, lontani. Una eco di queste vicende però rimase, soprattutto in Muratori e in Quaroni, nella capacità di saper tradurre e interpretare la lezione della storia. Nel primo attraverso la codificazione di una “storia operante”; nel secondo attraverso la formazione di uno sguardo capace di cogliere, tanto in testi come Immagine di Roma del 1969 che in progetti come l'ampliamento del Teatro dell'Opera di Roma, una storia di Roma e della romanità, costantemente presente e connotante la sua architettura e i suoi abitanti.
The thesis investigates the experience of Francesco Fariello, Saverio Muratori and Ludovico Quaroni, a Rome-based architectural team, that worked together from 1934 to 1940. During their brief but intense partnership, they took part in the most important Italian competitions and they were actively involved in the heated architectural debate in the Thirties, as they wrote for the main architecture magazines and newspapers. In their projects, they experimented different languages. At first, they endorsed an original modernity, inspired by models mostly observed in foreign magazines, and later they started to look at classicism as a renewed source of architectural shapes. During the fascism's last years, they fully embodied the complexity of Italian architectural culture, participating in the late Thirties, as a lot of their peers, in the planning of the Esposizione Universale di Roma 1942 (E42). The projects proposed for Palazzo dei Ricevimenti e dei Congressi and for Piazza Imperiale and its facing buildings appear to be - both now and then - contradictory to their first works. The stylistic turning point, as known, reflects a more general step back of modern architecture in Italy, due to the new imperial and monumental character expected by Benito Mussolini after the Italo-Ethiopian War and to the autarchic policy, which restricted the use of materials such as steel and glass, but it also depended on the closeness of the three young architects to Marcello Piacentini. One of the thesis' chapter deals with their relationship, starting from the participation of Fariello and Muratori in the editorial staff of «Architettura» to the collaboration between Quaroni and Piacentini in the set-up of several expositions in the two editions of Triennale di Milano of 1936 and 1940. The analysis of many unpublished drawings realized by the three architects for E42 projects, preserved in Quaroni's archive held by Associazione Archivio storico Olivetti, shows the attempt to build their own classic identity, founded on the study of a large collection of buildings, both Italian and foreign, and both ancient and contemporary. This is the proof that E42 projects were not exclusively influenced by the Scandinavian classicism, as claimed first by Manfredo Tafuri in his monograph research about Quaroni in 1964 and taken for granted by the subsequent literature, but they were rather inspired by a broad spectrum of design references, taken from «the classic architecture of all time», as they wrote on the report for Palazzo dei Ricevimenti e dei Congressi's competition. The thesis ascribes this design method to the legacy of the Scuola superiore di Architettura di Roma, which they attended between 1928 and 1934. In fact, the School, and especially the two-year courses Storia e stili dell'architettura and Disegno architettonico ed elementi di composizione, respectively held by Vincenzo Fasolo and Enrico Del Debbio, taught the students to search in the entire history of architecture spatial schemes and design rules to abstract and propose again in contemporary projects. Second World War interrupted both the construction of the Esposizione Universale di Roma and their partnership, which had probably been in crisis since 1938. Their collaboration dissolved in three different careers, and even though they became all academics at the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Rome, they undertook very distant paths from each other, both for the subjects taught and for the method proposed. An echo of this collaborative experience remains, especially in Muratori and Quaroni, in the ability to interpret the lesson of the past: the former through the formulation of the theory of “storia operante”; the latter through the development of a gaze able to seize and report, in books as Immagine di Roma and in projects as Teatro dell'Opera's extension, the Roman history and spirit, which have always been present in its architecture and in its people.

Abstract:
Abstract: In 1936, immediately after the Italian conquest of the Ethiopian territories, the Fascist government initiated a competition to prepare the plan of Addis Ababa. Shortly, the new capital of the Italian empire in East Africa became the center of the Fascist debate on colonial planning and the core of the architectural discussion on the design for the control of African people. Taking into consideration the proposal for Addis Ababa designed by Le Corbusier, this paper reveals his perception of Europe’s role of supremacy in the colonial history of the 1930s. Le Corbusier admired the achievements of European colonialism in North Africa, especially the work of Prost and Lyautey, and appreciated the results of French domination in the continent. As architect and planner, he shared the Eurocentric assumption that considered overseas colonies as natural extension of European countries, and believed that the separation of indigenous and European quarters led to a more efficient control of the colonial city. In Addis Ababa he worked within the limit of the Italian colonial framework and, in the urgencies of the construction of the Fascist colonial empire, he participated in the coercive construction of imperial identities. Keywords: Le Corbusier; Addis Ababa; colonial city; Fascist architecture; racial separation; Eurocentrism. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/LC2015.2015.838

Abstract:
During the communist regime of Enver Hoxha, Albania built nearly 200 000 bunkers as a measure of protection towards an imaginary attack from (un)known enemies of the Popular Socialist Republic. Most of these structures built in concrete are still part of the landscapes almost in every part of the territory. While the most common type is small and identified from the semi spherical shape, particular bunkers have quite large dimensions and specific features related to their function and location. During the last five years, three of the most unique modern fortifications built during socialism for the displacement of the governmental authorities in case of war, were revealed and made accessible to the public. These structures, transformed today in museums, cultural spaces or simply visitable attractions, are the symbol of an auto-referenced reality within Europe, where the paranoia produced an unusual typology of modern age fortifications. These bunkers, planned to withstand twentieth century military attacks, are extraordinary structures in terms of engineering and building features, and at the same time they represent a very valuable heritage related to the history of communism in Albania. This article aims to offer a comprehensive analysis of the fortification of the Albanian territory during the twentieth century as an overall country defence plan, while focusing on the governmental bunkers in order to understand how the ideological differences with the rest of the world created the need for protection and produced an amazing military infrastructure. The discussion on the future of these structures seems to be strongly related to the ability of recognising these modern fortifications on the Mediterranean as cultural heritage.

Abstract:
The subject of vernacular architecture, as is well known, is a vast concept embracing different fields of investigation. It is a type of art created to suit specific lifestyles of single communities, such as the Islamic community. Bazaars, characteristic markets in Eastern countries, are a significant example in this context. The proposed contribution intends to analyse these architectural and urban environments in Albania and Macedonia, through the discipline of restoration aimed at knowledge, documentation and conservation. The proposed case studies represent a significant example of how the restoration of these areas is of fundamental importance for the urban regeneration of historic cities. The Bazaar in Skopjie has always been regarded as the cultural, spiritual, economic and historical centre of the capital. This site, from an architectural point of view, has managed to create an image of the old city in the new city, preserving its original identity features over the centuries. In Tirana, on the other hand, the new Bazaar is a genuine urban regeneration project that aims to preserve the Albanian cultural tradition. If the Bazaar in Skopjie is in a precarious state of conservation, while maintaining its original character, the recently rebuilt Albanian market is an important example of not only architectural but also urban regeneration. The proposed research has foreseen different operational phases: an initial analysis of the historical transformations of the areas under investigation; an identification on a territorial scale and a subsequent analysis on an architectural scale using the restoration discipline. The aim of the investigation is to identify the level of use and conservation of both Bazaars, in order to elaborate digital documents on a cognitive basis for the identification of guidelines for the conservation and enhancement project of the case studies taken as a model for the proposed research.

Abstract:
A set of actions, concerning conservation policies, have been undertaken in Great Prespa Lake Region, Albania during the last years. The activities, as presented in this paper, are part of a project driven by European Heritage Volunteers in partnership with the GFA Consulting Group, the Transboundary Biosphere Reserve Prespa Project and with the collaboration of Polytechnic University of Valencia. This joined partnership has made possible the creation of a document “Guidelines for interventions at vernacular architecture at Great Prespa Lake” as following explained. The guidelines are finally aiming to all the villages of the this Biosphere Reserve of UNESCO, but the result has been possible thanks specially to the study – in detail – of one of the rural communities located in the region – Zaroshke. The village has been selected and analyzed as a possible pilot project for conservation polices and community involvement, during the summer of 2021, thanks to the participation of local communities and international volunteers (students and young professionals) trough the systematic documentation of vernacular architecture of the village.
