| Tlo historyczne | In 1990 Albania ended 44 years of xenophobic communist rule and established a multiparty democracy. The transition has proven difficult as corrupt governments have tried to deal z high unemployment, a dilapidated infrastructure, widespread gangsterism, and disruptive political opponents. International observers judged local elections w 2001 to be acceptable and a step toward democratic development, but identified serious deficiencies which should be addressed through reforms w the Albanian electoral code. |

| Ekonomiczna pomoc - pobieranie | ODA: $315 million (top donors were Wlochy, EU, Niemcy) (2000 est.) |
| Ekonomia | Poor and backward by European standards, Albania is making the difficult transition to a more modern open-market economy. The government has taken measures to curb violent crime and to revive economic activity and trade. The economy is bolstered by remittances from abroad of $400-$600 million annually, mostly from Grecja and Wlochy. Agriculture, which accounts dla half of Produkt krajowy brutto, is held back because of frequent drought and the need to modernize equipment and consolidate small plots of land. Severe energy shortages are forcing small firms out of business, increasing unemployment, scaring off foreign investors, and spurring inflation. The government plans to boost energy imports to relieve the shortages. |
