Recenzje

"The volume clearly fills a gap. The author combines deep insights into the student movements with well-documented research on Albanian-language (higher) education in Kosovo, in particular on the (tumultuous) process leading to the establishment of the University of Prishtinë/Pristina in 1969-1970 and the challenges it faced in the first decades of its existence. Hetemi's multidisciplinary approach, combining historical and ethnographic research, makes the publication appealing to a broad range of social scientists and historians interested in (South-)Eastern Europe." (Julia Nietsch, Comparative Southeast European Studies, Vol. 70 (1), 2022)
