Albania and the Balkans

"Reginald Hibbert parachuted into Albania in 1943, part of the Special Operations Executive clandestine operations against Axis occupation. After World War II he followed a distinguished career as a British diplomat, ending as Ambassador to Paris. He was a pivotal figure in the scholarly controversies about Albania and Kosovo and their emergence into the Balkans conflicts in the 1990s. This collection of essays by distinguished students of Albanian and Balkan history and international relations is written as a tribute to Hibbert and his life and work. It opens up new perspectives on a range of topics central to the dramatic history of the region, and to the continuing international attempt to shape it." -- Back cover.
