Law Enforcement, Education Accessibility and The Kanun

Abstract

This study exposes the violation of Articles One through Five in The Universal Declaration of Human Rights compiled in Paris on December 10 th , 1948 by the people of Albania, the lack of law enforcement by official authorities and the deprivation to formal educational programs. "The Kanun," provides the grounds upon which Albanian culture is based (Littlewood, 2002), contains the set of ideas that regulates Albanian blood feuds (Grutzpalk, 2002) and defines in a broad sense the sets of norms and rules of social activities based on very specific notions such as honor, loyal, trust, belief, assurance for safety and truce incorporated in the Albanian society (Celik & Shkreli, 2010
