The article aims to
draw the attention of central and local government authorities to certain
problems of rural labor market development in Albania, its impacts on
socio-economic and environmental processes, opportunities and perspectives for
sustainable development etc. Since
1990, Albania has experienced a profound revolution related to the political
regime, administrative institutions and international relations. One of the
most involved aspects in these movements was the labor market. After 1990 there
were such events as: abandonment of suburbs, especially of far mountainous
areas, high hilly territories; desertification of the physical environment as
well as increased human pressure to migrate to the urban and suburban areas of
the country. This “fierce” urbanization emerged thanks to the free movement of
the population and the opportunity to choose freely the settlement. The industry
was paralyzed and most of the facilities were closed, causing mass unemployment
and degradation of some cities and industrial zones and a massive rural exodus.
Over the last three decades there is evidence of a significant increase in “underground
agrarian” unemployment. Agricultural uses of rural areas have left the country
for non-agricultural use. Both agriculture and the environment are most the
most vulnerable elements
which create conflicts in the land sales
market and sharp property problems. The study is focused on the rural market,
as a very sensitive market where they find the fullest expression of
postcommunist processes of nearly three decades
